Do you have to get the bush hats out - with corks hanging off them for fly control? -Getting unseasonable rain in the middle of summer where I live in Australia, yesterday was 43 degree celsius, today its raining which is good, cooled down the place a bit but in a few days time it means we are going to have a bush fly problem because moisture + heat breeds flies, lots of them. Thank God for dung beetles otherwise we wouldnt be able to do anything.
That's what I thought as well........guess not.I thought it was James Bond's gadget man.![]()
Yeah - Loki made a new Jack Russel doggie friend called Poppy in the park - that thing can turn on a sixpence - doesn't get nasty - and loves to run with LokiThere's no parks to run my mutt around here, we have a pebbly beach (no good to run on) or the open land which is full of sheep and he has zero recall when it's playtime with another dog, sheep, cat, bird etc... So i run him down a single track lane with minimal traffic where he meets up with his jack russell friends and had a good bark and play with them.
Loki's hair got me looking for an Ai pic I did to fit a frame we have (still not got it printed and hung in the crapper... Gawd bless the attention deficit!)

We want a wall of Ai pics in the toilet, that makes people question if they're real or not.![]()
Morning OFs.
Bit of catching up to do this morning huh?
Yes Gypsy, I do miss having my 10kg Jack Russell (who was possessed by a demon) I could just pick him up and shove him under my arm to keep him from being an arse. This sheepdog has given me tendonitis in my right arm from pulling at stuff and going nuts, he is nervous and HATES being on a lead, I think he feels trapped and at a disadvantage for protecting us (his flock) and himself.
Anyway, back to the terrier... he hated the postie, we had a female post person in our old house, she'd just caught me out of the shower in my robe with a parcel and the dog came bolting at the door to kill her, so I grabbed him, and he did his usual wriggling trapped tazmanian devil cartoon thing... rolling my bathrobe all the way around himself and exposing my undercarriage to the postwoman.
She knocked the door, even for letters after that day!
(no she didn't)![]()
We wear mesh screens over our hats, thats pretty common here. Flies will drive you crazy in summer where we live, North West Australia. If you go outside in summer better to be completely covered. They pay no respect to insect repellent.Do you have to get the bush hats out - with corks hanging off them for fly control? -
Yup, I am gonna get my due diligence done early. Will be inside as much as possible it next few days..Well here comes the polar express.
Starting tomorrow till Tuesday outside will be a no no.

Grocery day, wash day, might zip the vac around.
How’s the new furniture look? Did it fill the room back up?Yup, I am gonna get my due diligence done early. Will be inside as much as possible it next few dsys.
Jeez - so even strong DEET doesn't phaze the flies - down under in probably the wildest part of Australia - yeah - must drive ya bonkers - you've got some nasty old crocodiles down that way too - so I've heard - regularly snacking on the tourists -We wear mesh screens over our hats, thats pretty common here.

Wrong pieces were delivered in the sectional and the battery packs won‘t charge. Will get it worked out. Furniture is beautiful.How’s the new furniture look? Did it fill the room back up?
Yeah - Loki made a new Jack Russel doggie friend called Poppy in the park - that thing can turn on a sixpence - doesn't get nasty - and loves to run with Loki
- sad that you don't have a good park to go to nearby - where it's fenced and gated - so the dog doesn't go walking in the traffic - and maybe you lose him -
- Loki's pretty good now - and usually comes back when called - I've not had to go chasing after him in quite a while -
a good plan though FFS !In other news. Nothing crazy happened today in my little bubble of the world. So that’s a good thing. I’ll take it.
Now if I could sneak up on the ole lady…. I tried to put a dirty plate in the corner of the kitchen. The plan was, when she bent over to pick it up, I was going to pounce off the fridge naked and see if my aim was true. She didn’t pick the plate up![]()
@Countryboy -- I note you have appended a happy face on every turn of this stupid shit-stirring.Where does a personality cult come into play here. I don't agree with a lot that is presented on this thread as gospel but see no reason to disparage anyone, or be snide and sarcastic.
Calling people names is not the only way to be disrespectful and attack the messengers credibility. I think the examples that I provided speak for themselves and anyone in our age range should have figured that out by now.
