At least you can say your life isn’t boring K Atie, life on a farm has always been hard work. Well done on the tree planting, I hope you can do something about the hare problem.

The tree planting is fantastic KAtie.
Marina a necessary thing to get done or you will scrub your tyres.

We have 3 diesel vehicles K Atie and none of them need AdBlu. Is your vehicle very new? What sort is it please? I'm curious.

I haven't done much today.

A very excited GS called round this morning to show us his first car and then stayed for lunch.

I met up with a friend for breakfast. It was the first time we had met up since the third of our group died. (We did see each other at her funeral). It was lovely but odd with only the 2 of us.
I had a lovely Bircher muesli with lots of fruit.

We had a Car gymkhana today. It is always tremendous fun.
DH was blindfolded and I had to guide him through the track.


Me getting the washing in, after pegging it out from the car. Not as easy as it looks, especially as DH kept driving too far from the line.

K Atie, have you tried the local apiarist's club for help?  There may not be a chapter near you, but they may have a member living nearby who might be willing to come out to your place.  May be worth a try.

He is the local bee man that I contacted , I’ll try him tomorrow again . In fact he has been to our place before . There are a lot of dead bees inside ! That’s a job for tonight or in the early morning. Late yesterday the kitten brought another baby tiger snake into the back garden then dropped as I turned away and it will be having a lovely time in the grass !! As even the kitten could not find it . Did anyone see Jupiter under the moon two nights ago it was so bright .

We are having a mini holiday at the moment. Last night we had a bush camp at a home made weir near Quairading.
Tonight we are in a little town called Kulin https://www.kulin.wa.gov.au/
The caravan park is amazing. All sites are perfectly level (it saves having to level the van ). You pay what you think it’s worth and each site has a satellite dish ready to hook up to your tv..

It’s nice to have a break occasionally, enjoy your mini holiday cookie.
