Hello ED, me again, re. Rolfe Harris, he was quite good at painting with a huge brush. I recall seeing him painting a portrait  of Queen Elizabeth. And as a youngster I loved his TV shows. Unfortunately he was exposed as a pedophile. Found guilty. EEEKKK!

Hello Ed, I managed to stake up my tomatoes so that the fruit can see the sun. Took me awhile to find the twine that I needed. I did get all excited this afternoon when I saw that fig tree has a small budding fruit on it. Hmmm, the birds will most likely get it as they do my olives. I filled my bird baths as it is getting warmer again. Re. Salmon. I LOVE fried salmon with the skin on and lots of salt and pepper. Tomorrow I plan to go to Rosebud to a Telstra Store to buy an Apple Watch that connects to my phone and will alert people if I have a fall. My brother wants me to get one as I live alone. My plumber showed me his and when I met him the other day he asked me if I had got one yet. It seems a sensible thing to do. So that is tomorrow's task. Enjoy your new day.

Hello Ed, we also had chicken wings at the shared art group luncheon and I have last night's left overs to eat as well. So I will be over chicken wings for awhile. I hope that your freezer is working. What does Sandra eat when you are feasting on frozen dinners? Does she also eat them? I am now going to check my tomatoes and then reheat my dinner.

Hello ED, TY for the mouse and PD. Home again after my first art group for the year. Today one of tjhe group, an established artist gave a demonstration of how to paint a sea scape with acrylics. He completed a small painting within 30 minutes and it was wonderful. Re. motor bike riding. When I was little Dad had a motor bike. As an adult I used to go Trail bike riding. It was great fun. Enjoy your day.

Morning splash--No sun and it is sort of foggy out there this morning and -5. Its a heat wave!!! and maybe some of this white stuff will go(not to fast as I don't want flooding next although we usually get some in the spring.) We have sort of stopped with the card thing(except for my daughter who has some sore of little machine that she makes them with)unless it is an important one. I usually get one from her every occasion cuz I guess everyone of mine is important. Yes the frozen stuff is perfect for the likes of me too as I can just pop them in the microwave and away I go.some have a lot of salt but I don't have a problem with that yet.Chores today as they seem to always be there. Have a good day

Hello Ed, dinner now done. It was roasted chicken wings with a lovely sauce. Veggies of course. I have been researching native Moonah trees to replace the trees that I had chopped down. I will go to the nursery to purchase 2 on Thursday. I will also ask them about other native trees that I can plant as the back garden is now looking somewhat bare.

Hello ED, TY for the mouse. Can you get a canopy for Sandra's cart? I have seen people here with canopies and plastic shields. As you may see from the timing of my messages it only took me 30 minutes to move the hoses. It is all uphill and down dale here with rocky and sandy paths. I use my walking stick for security. And of course my watering system still remains complicated. Fairly sure that I have sorted it. Now I have a sprinkler on my lemon and Olive tree out the back and have moved the wave like one to the front. It was the wave like one that the birds were enjoying.  I will have to go up and out the back to check that my olive tree ios getting its fair share of water. The birds did protest and I can't blame them as it is getting really hot here. Hopefully they will find the wave one in the front yard. Enjoy your new day.

Hello Ed, well Djok lost the Grand Slam. I was impressed by his speech afterwards. He was never a favourite of mine, unlike Federer, however I may have to review my thinking. At the moment I have several sprinklers on and as I sit outside I see many birds enjoying them. I need to move the main sprinkler that acts like a wave. I hope that the birds do not mind me relocating it.
