Hello Ed, ypu never bore me. I enjoy your messages. Re cats and toys, Mungo stopped playing with his toys years ago. I guess like children they grow out of them. And scratching posts. Both Mungo and Mindy prefer scratching on the trees outside. They generally ignore my scratching post and prefer my lounge chairs when they want to tell me that they really want to go outside. Sigh! I recall you telling me about the too small lounge cover and your adaptions. I hope that you have got it sorted now for this visit. Re. knitting and cats, Mungo generally sits on my knees as I knit and doesn't bother me. Sometimes in the morning I would find balls of wool scattered around. I haven't knitted since Mindy's arrival so not sure how she will be. She is currently asleep on my comfortable library chair and I have a hard wooden one to sit on. I will soon be in bed to snuggle and read. Not listen to the AFL. Enjoy your new day.

Hello ED, TY for the White mouse. I listened to the game on the radio. Nearly turned it off but then the last quarter! WOW! I am pleased that you are enjoying the book. Yes I can see how you identify with the humour. I might have a photo of me on a cakel with Grace when she was little? I am having a quiet day at home reading and pottering. Enjoy your visitors.

Hi Ed
Jim gone yo watch Neil Young. Tasha gone to work. I am in the cool watching Wicked.
Have a great evening

Good morning splash--It is sunny and clear and going to warm up to be another heat wave. I never turned on the golf channel until 2 so don't know if they had the Scottish open on but I had the womens golf followed by the minor players PGA so still got my fill. I am going to have to stick to the schedule here today as yesterday the day slide by and not much was done. Didn't get up real early but off to get the laundry done before it gets to hot and then I will tackle the rest of the list. Have a good day

Hello ED, TY fot the P-P. We were lucky in Mansfield to have a camel farm. Unusual for the High Country. Most camels are further up North in warmer climates. They originally came with the Afghans in the early days of colonisation. Many camels escaped and can be a problem as they are not native animals. Horses are also not native and even though I have owned one or two, for Sarah when she was younger, I prefer patting them rather than riding them. So Tracey is off to Greece and you will be cat sitting again. Do her cats get on well with each other? Mindy constantly lashes out at Mungo who is quite fed up with it. He now lashes back. Funny thing is they are both quite happy to sleep on my bed with me between them and the other day I came home from shopping to find them both asleep on my bed without me, although not together. I will soon be off to bed. Mungo is already there. I think that I will stream a TV show? Not sure. Enjoy your day.

Hello ED, TY for the mouse. No I haven't been to Denmark. However YES I have been on many camel rides. A Mansfield school family owned a Camel farm. Every year before the Summer break we would take the children on an all day camel trek up into the hills. I loved it and happily we were taught how to maintain our seats when the camels stood up. It is a 3 part movement. Once the camels are up it is a relaxing ride and then the reverse when it is time to get off the camel. Enjoy your day.
