HI EVERYONE – NOT MUCH TO REPORT, I HAD MY FIRST PHYSIO SESSION TODAY AT 12,00 NOON WHICH STIRRED UP THE PAIN AGAIN, SO NOT A HAPPY CHAPPIE.

TRISH – NICE TO HEAR FROM YOU AGAIN AND CAN ONLY GIVE YOU THE SAME ADVICE I GAVE YOU AND JOE LAST TIME – DON’T WORK TOO HARD AND BUGGER YOURSELVES UP AGAIN,

SHIRLEY – THANKS FOR THE OFFER OF PUPS FROM THE SEEDLINGS I LIKE AND THE SAME APPLIES TO YOU, HOWEVER BY THE TIME WE KEEP A SPARE FOR OURSELVES IT COULD BE A TWO YEAR WAIT.

IT COULD BE THE WARM, HUMID WEATHER THAT’S FORCING THE PUPS TO GROW SO VIGOROUSLY, I KNOW IT’S NOT FERTILISER AS I HAVEN’T FERTILISED SINCE THEY WERE REPOTTED.

AS FOR THIS ROTTEN HAND, THE SURGEON SAYS I’LL HAVE THIS WIRE CAGE ON FOR ABOUT FIVE WEEKS BUT IT ALL DEPENDS ON HOW SORE IT IS AFTER THAT AS TO WHEN I CAN START USING IT AGAIN. IT’S NOT THE WIRE CAGE THAT HURTS, IT’S THE TWO BITS OF WIRE THAT GO THROUGH MY FINGER TO HOLD IT IN PLACE.

THEY’RE GREAT PIC’S YOU’VE POSTED AGAIN BUT MY FAVOURITE HAS TO BE THE NEO. RED DAWN, I THINK IT’S GREAT. NOW THAT YOU’VE TORMENTED ME WITH IT , YOU’LL HAVE TO ADD A PUP TO MY WISH LIST IF YOU POSSIBLY CAN.

COLLEEN – IT SEEMS LIKE WE WERE TO HAVE HAD HIGH TEMPS TODAY ALSO BUT IT ONLY REACHED THE MID THIRTIES WITH A COLD SOUTHERLY CHANGE EXPECTED TONIGHT.

I DON’T THINK YOU WOULD LIKE THOSE BLOODY DESTRUCTIVE SULPHUR CRESTED COCKATOOS IF YOU LIVED HERE. THEY CHEWED MY TV ANTENNA TO BITS, THEN CHEWED THE FASCIA AFTER WHICH THEY STARTED ON THE ARCHITRAVES AROUND THE BACK WINDOWS. THEY FINALLY GAVE IT AWAY TO GO NEXT DOOR AND DESTROY THE SOLAR HOT WATER SYSTEM OFF THE ROOF. WHY DID WE HAVE TO HAND OUR GUNS IN TO THE COPS YEATS AGO?

WITH THE MISTER ODEAN SEEDLINGS, THEY ARE JUST LIKE ANY OTHER SEEDLINGS, A LOTTERY. YOU GET SOME GOOD ONES, SOME MEDIUM ONES AND SOME LEMONS, BUT THEY ARE ALL UNIQUE AND DIFFERENT.

TERESA – GOOD LUCK AT THE ALL BREEDS SHOW

JUST A FEW BROM. FLOWER PIC’S TO FINISH WITH TODAY.

ALL THE BEST, NEV
