House

Tomorrow it starts again. Househunting. "leuk is anders" but it has to be done and the pay-off is having your own place at the end of it all. Living here at my mother's is very nice but it's not your-own-place.

Red backs

I don't know why we didn't think of this before. It's the perfect solution. Move all the deadly venomous things to another country. Starting with red backs which apparently have taken too moving to the Netherlands. Of course the fatal flaw in this plan is that they'll be back. If Melbourne is too cold for them I can't imagine them seeing out a winter in the flat damp lands.

RGB - Australian Garden

Sunday we braved an astonishingly cold and lets say, hearty, wind to viist the new Royal Botanic Gardens at Cranbourne and especially the Australian Garden. While the main activity of the day had to be hunting for kangaroos and dinosaurs we did have time to have a quick glance around the gardens themselves. It's a sensational garden and now that we are on the brink of starting the great-house-hunt again very inspiring. Because of the weather we didn't see as much of the rest of the gardens as we would have liked. Still that gives us the chance to go back again doesn't it?

Out of time

The morning routine of getting Jacob fed-dressed-and-off-to-creche was pleasantly interrupted this morning by a phone call from BBC-star-Kathy-Clugston. Trans-hemisphere chats are always disconcerting though; I'm trying to finish breakfast and she's ready to turn in for the night, or more usual, I ring everyone after a glass of two of red at the end of the evening to discover them all beavering away at work in what seems at the time a very industrious fashion.

Worst of all is when someone may or may not have very-significant-news on a certain date and at the end of that day you are JUST itching to call them only to realise that it's only 7.00am where they are, the day hasn't yet begun and the news won't yet exist! I have to sit out an entire evening as well!
