Day 66 Nubeena Friday 1st April 2011

Hi Folks,
What can I say about today.
Not a lot really.
Our new unnamed goat refuses to go anywhere near a rope so will be languishing in the corral until she can be tethered.
I have a new helper who has only very basic English skills. On the upside he is an excellent worker. We moved about 50 cans of paint from 4 locations to one. I also had him doing weeding and raking all the refuse out of the animal pens.
Now that winter is approaching the mice are starting to come in. After yesterdays success I set some more traps today. Maybe I can knock them off before they get out of hand. Hopefully some of them will get distracted by the 30 * 5 metre pile of hay bales that are out the back under black plastic.
Did a few repairs, organised some work for my offsider tomorrow, cooked a basic tea and that’s it. All a bit ho hum really.
The pools seem to be under control. I would invite anybody with an interest in maintaining them to read this
which covers it all quite nicely apart from salt water chlorination. Probably the only thing new is legionella pnuemophila. Although having said that it doesn’t seem to get a mention when biological testing is considered in Tasmania. Given the vapour/mist that rises from spas I found that a little surprising.
Looks like a quiet weekend guest wise. The calm before the storm.

Cheers Simon
