Tuesday Morning...

and it's not half as cold as yesterday when we had a light frost...Twitch went outside as he does, turned around and came straight back in! It seemed to stay cold all day too, by 11am I was still too sore to go shopping so I went back to bed for a couple of hours!

Not exactly Montreal in Winter but cold for us as we don't have central heating etc...



Joe and I did the shopping together later in the afternoon, he was very pleased to get $30 worth of pecan and almondine tarts for $2.97 and when we came out of the supermarket the gent from the Wildlife Group had set up his desk and he had a beautiful koala with him. He's often there collecting money for his group, sometimes he has a couple of snakes or lizards so the koala was a real treat to see as they are not native to Western Australia. His name is Junior and he is 7yrs old...





The man also had what he called a Stimson Python but Wiki tells us that is a common mistake, just as we "always" call koalas "Koala Bears"...they are not bears at all but tree dwelling marsupials...


We went to the casino on Sunday to enjoy a Christmas In July dinner while the weather is cold, this is a common thing here in Upside-Down Land, the meal was wonderful and Dad was in top form...wearing my cowl scarf as a Russian hat on the bus...



some of the very fresh mandarins, limes, lemons and grapefruit he and Mum had picked the previous day...


and the new shopping centre at Kwinana is coming on nicely(if you like shopping centres, I don't!)...it was called the Hub for many years but now is known as Kwinana Marketplace so if you want any imported, mass produced rubbish here is the place to come...



 On that grumpy note I shall leave you lol
Enjoy the rest of your week,
Love Sue

  1. My very spoilt inside dog is the same. I open the door to the deck area (undercover no less) and he puts his nose out and decides, no i'll hang on. Then when he does go outside he pees on our deck instead of the back yard as he doesnt like to get his feet wet on the cold grass. Good Lord. How spoilt is he. He hops out of one person's bed and then goes looking for the one that's not yet awake so he can hop in. Animals are so so funny and have us right where they want us.
