We start tonight's blog with the pictures. Mystery pictures

| Any guesses to this substance that Susan bottled today? |
Answer,
This is honey but not your normal honey. It is produced by stingless native bees that are the size of small flies. It is known as sugarbag honey. About 1 kg per hive per season as opposed to european bees which produce about 80kg. The Australian record is an average of 357kg from 400 hives in a 12 month period.
In other activities today. I started on tidying up more tree mounds. The weather was hot so it was slow as I took breaks to beat the heat. I got half a dozen done along with the mowing and mulching around them. It makes the garden area look really smart so we will continue this on Thursday. Susan's main job today was making up unit 2 since the guests left today.
We had a nice lasagne tea. Weather here is quite warm and heavy cloud with rain storms out west on the radar. Touch and go whether we will get a dumping as we are right on the edge. At least there is a hint of a cooler breeze.
Day off tomorrow and have no idea what we shall do!
night folks
Simon
