Lit the wood stove yesterday. It hasn't been really cold here but it's wet out and the wood fire makes the home feel more cosy and helps dry stuff out. I haven't even stocked my wood pile yet. Procrastination is a bitch. Hopefully I'll get time to do it next break to go cut some trees.

Somebody took advantage of a bad situation 😆

Back in 2010, our capital city, Perth had a huge hail storm. It's known as "The Great Perth Hail Storm of 2010". Hail the size of golf balls and bigger. Around 40,000 cars were written off and thousands with superficial damage. Hundreds of car yards and car parks full of cars, destroyed. Not to...

That sounds good and makes sense in that situation. I have a mixture of native and non-native plants.

Yeah my neighbour did too. I see more people are going to artificial lawns, concrete etc. Yes it's less maintenance and upkeep costs but I'm just not into fake lawns. Same with fake plants. Why even bother. But I'm bit of a green thumb.

Nah. I'd say about 95% of households have a lawn of some sort over here. Most Aussies are proud lawn keepers.

Yes we got lawn not long after we got electricity in Australia. About a month ago. 🤣

We were forecast some strong weather including rain (80% chance) yesterday, so on Saturday I purchased enough bags of lawn fertiliser and wetter to cover mine and also my mother-in-laws lawn. After mowing the lawn, I spread the 2 around by hand. I was already tired from nightshift but pushed...

He looks like a fungi 🤣

It's only predicted to be a cat 2 and follow the coast for a bit. We'll see.
