I didn't know that there were Bunnings stores overseas!

There are Bunnings in the UK !!!! We have actually seen them.

"Despite the turmoil swirling through the British retail sector caused by concerns over Brexit, a plunging pound and the recent election results, Australian hardware giant Bunnings has decided to double down on its expansion into the UK by announcing a doubling of its pilot program to open 20 stores by the end of 2017."

This was the sad view from our office door early this evening-

We heard a loud bang and found this fellow quite dazed.I went outside and it flew into a tree.I then went to our letterbox and saw 3 mynahs chase it back into our door-1 on either side and one behind so steered it.I the shooed the mynahs off but noticed they then just sat in the same tree so threw sticks at them so they disappeared.The young bird obviously realised I was helping so stayed still when I came back.We supplied it with a shoebox for protection and some water.It spent the next hour sheltering but has now gone.

Sunset over the stromatolites at Hamelin Pool in Shark Bay.

It's not every day you can sit on the boardwalk with a glass of wine looking at sunset over organisms that have probably seen more sunsets than any other living thing on earth...
