Hi Folks,
Today started with some further clearing for the excavator. This provided me with an opportunity to give my chainsaw a run. It ploughed through the wattles until I ran out of chain oil. The warmth generated by that made its running temperamental. However it came back on stream eventually. While I was fetching supplies for the saw Susan was ripping her trousers off in the paddock as a jack jumper ant had invaded them and was biting her. On one of my other trips back to get tools I came across rather large brown snake in the middle of the lawn. It waited until I went to get my camera before disappearing.
We had a sojourn after lunch for a few hours before resuming some weeding and rock removal at around 4. Mainly weed removed was paspalum. The seed heads were cut off and the body of the plants dug out.
Susan and I went down to the main house for our showers just before dusk and returned for a tasty Pad Thai dinner.
We had a movie evening watching "Red Dog" on Susan's laptop which everyone enjoyed. We have a 10am start tomorrow which will be good seeing as it is nearly midnight now. A bit cloudy today so the solar struggled. Doesn't matter how many panels you have if the sun doesn't shine.
Anyway that's it, no pictures today.
night folks
Simon
