Hi folks,

Another busy but lovely sunny day.

The usual jobs happened however the main job for me and my helpers was cleaning up down by the grotto which ended up with the wielding of a chain saw to clear trees blocking the creek. This task will be continued tomorrow. I managed to get the Toyota van stuck down the hill on the wet grass. I used the Pajero to tow it up the hill with me in the Toyota and Susan in Grumbly (The Pajero). I shall remember not to take it down there again! We also cut some wood for the heater in the shed for the movie evening tomorrow night. Of course it wasn't all glamour, getting the mankiness out if the rubbish bins was another of my tasks.

We had a social evening in the paddock tonight with a camp fire. Susan supplied marshmallows. The cooking of these in the fire on sticks was a new experience for some of our helpers. After completing her reception duties Susan appeared like the genie from the bottle with a large vat of hot chocolate. The helpers seemed to enjoy themselves. Especially making time exposure writing pictures with fire sticks.

At 10:00 I finished the fire off by smothering the large logs burning by burying them in holes. It was a good evening with light wind and light cloud. We had Bat playing guitar with tunes that didn't have lyrics so there was no singalong something we should be grateful for! The pictures of the fire are at the end of the evening when the flames had died down a bit.

Seeya folks

cheers

Simon
