Sorry Gert, when i saw you had posted on the happy thread i couldnt help but think no wonder with all that alchohol in your shed!

Ha ha. It ain't quite alcohol yet but it is happily bubbling away.

I am happy today because yesterday I went to a breakfast  and bush poetry  morning at Spurwood Springs and VDO''d some of the performers so today I was doubly happy because I got to watch it all again.

Gert, speaking of bubbling away,I am a bit worried about my cider, never having made it before. It was bubbling away, rhythmically like a heart beat but has now stopped. Not sure if I have killed it or this is normal. It needs to be kept at a temp between 18-28 which it has been although it is 28 today.

Son't want to ruin this thread so I will ask you a few questions in Anything Goes Uni thread before. I answer.

Thanks for your lovely words Gert :)

When her time comes we will not let her suffer, she will go with dignity and be pain free. And there are a few of my doggies she'll play with when she goes.

I am getting a boy, he will be yellow and I have one name, but am not 100%, so am seeing what he looks like before we finalise that. The kids have come up with some oddities, so we'll have to narrow it down.

The really exciting bit is that the Mummy dog is just around the corner from me so I can go visit whenever I like. I may be a bit permanent when the puppies are born ;D ;D

That is so nice we will look forward to the pics and the name choice.  I would love another Lab but a black one. I guess that won't happen.

Never say never Gert. I didn't think I'd get this pup, but figured it was "my" time to choose a dog.

Contributed $114 to the boys' high school by buying second hand uniforms. Saved $312 vs new. Happy! 😄😄

Well done. Uniforms can be so expensive.

I almost heard you above the sound of the rain Nikkit. We have had a couple of good showers this afternoon. DH was out in the old car. It has no side windows.  ;D ;D ;D ;D. The highest forecast this week is 30. Lovely cool weather.  ;D ;D :D

Have to agree DD. it is a beautiful smell.  Should be bottled and sold.
