Another great day in the bush. One tends to get a bit blase about the surroundings. I found out yesterday this "bush" that surrounds us is all regrowth from a cleared farmed property which took me by surprise.
I fenced the vegetable patch as much as I could until the chicken wire ran out. It was then on to shredding the lantana cut the other day. Jules arrived home with more wire which we didn't end up using as it was cheaper to cut down a part roll of 1.8m material.
Susan in the meantime was engaged in cleaning the cupboards in the kitchen along with the fridge. Once Jules had delivered sandpaper she was on to sanding the railings around the deck. The final job for the afternoon was bagging the banana bunches on the trees. This involved Susan and I holding the ladder while Jules balanced precariously on it to place the bags and tie them off.
The auxiliary battery in the car charged up ok but I have no idea if the storage capacity is still ok. I also took the opportunity to debag the swag and lay the bits out in the sun since the winds last night blue the tarp off and we had a couple of showers dampening the bag.

It doesn't sound like a very exciting day but it was quite enjoyable!
