Wind's howling
Very! Most glad it's a WFH day. Useful for finding all the draughts in the house that need blocking up.
I think trying to find any single draughts in my place would be futile, there are so many of them. Plus they mingle with the radiating cold coming through the walls and windows.
I'm looking forward to the new place being both double glazed and drought proof - everything is very well sealed and weather stripped there. I'm hoping as well as the temperature benefits it will mean less dust inside.
Seems a single door snake will fix this place. Fingers crossed.
The last one I'm pretty sure did actual harm to our health. Couldn't get it above 15 degrees no matter what in July/august.

Cheetos for breakfast. The universe has not manifested a fedora, so far.

Eeep! I've a perfect visual of that florid doffing gesture.
Oof that wind. I'm meant to be doing fieldwork today, hahaha....

( and it's so cool when pelicans fly over and there are birds here I don't know )

Woke up at 3 and couldnโt get back to sleep, tossed and turned and grumbled. Then of course half hour before the alarm went off, my body just switched off and went into a glorious sleep. Grr.
All that wind didnโt help with the insomnia last night
Billy Ray Cyrus and Elizabeth Hurley huh?
IKR. ๐คฎ
Like what the hell!? The ELIZABETH HURLEY with Billy Ray Cyrus?? Of all people!?
It's breaking my damn brain!
And I thought it was weird when she dated Shane Warne ๐
Going to the Perth zoo today for my last day here. Flying back home tomorrow morning ๐
I love Perth zoo. The pygmy marmosets are my favourite. They're so cute.
Have a great day!
THEY HAVE RHINOS THERE! SEE THE RHINOS!
Fuck ๐
I wonder if the vegies would grow well in that?
I believe you can buy ZooPoo from Royal Melbourne Zoo, maybe Werribee as well. Yes, vegies do grow well in it.
So is it bagged up per species or like a mixed salad where everything is thrown in?
Mixed. I think they just bag the accumulated poop. I understand its mostly elephant poop as they produce so much.

Oh my lordy
Say hi to Nellie. And tell her her newsletter is late.
It's hard to type with those little fingers.
yay, zoo ๐
I am half way through the second Helen Forrester autobiography,
I am all out of sympathy for the mother. She is a cruel selfish grifter, sending begging letters for children's clothes to all her old friends, her daughter's friends and friends of friends.
Then when she gets the clothes , much much needed clothes, she pawns them and uses the money to buy cigarettes.
The children are dressed in filthy rags.
To top it off she mocks Helen for being filthy and ragged, poorly educated and unemployable. This is unforgiveable.
But there are two bright spots.
Because the children were told to look after each other they did and grew up close and supportive of each other.
All the children could read and write and had access to books.
This meant they were able to heed advice regarding education and take advantage of opportunity.
Liverpool Miss is so damned brutal
To top it off she mocks Helen for being filthy and ragged, poorly educated and unemployable. This is unforgiveable.
My sister in Christ, you (Helenโs mother) raised the child.

god damn the right wing rags are really gunning for the state election. At this point I'd ignore the fuckers if they said the sky was blue.
I ignore them whatever they've got to say.
I wonder if they'll roll out the 'Tough on crime' platform for a 3rd time in a row.
