Wednesday 15th. Good fun today. Go on a mini tour around the homestead garden in search of a Bower bird's nest.(look it up on google - David Attenborough on You Tube). We find a couple of nests in the making. They are fasinating little birds that pick up one colour articles to attract a mate. In the case of our nests they have gone for anything Blue. Ribbon, plastic, Biro etc. Aly drives M on a golf buggy for the start of out tour looking for all the world like a Popemobile. M looks very anxious as they slow almost to a stop in the middle of a ford crossing of the river. Later transfer to quad bike. Never thought I would see the day when M sat astride any form of motor bike or that I would have the courage to allow her to drive it with me on the pillion. Needless to say she was quite pleased with herself once we all got over the initial shock. Saw three large birds soaring in the distance and at first thought they may be Buzzards but have been told that they were most likely Eagles. The blossom in the gardens is wonderful particularly the Jacaranda. Stop to watch some Polo but rain started so ran for cover of the stables. Signing off for now. Keep the comments coming folks.

OH MY GOD! MOTHER ON A QUAD BIKE! did she actually ride the thing or just sit on it?
It all looks too cool for school, can we have a picture of the house please and also Jim and Ali..... and not so many of the dobins! have you seen many all 'arse and lipstick ones'?
Glad you are having a great time but do try to do other things apart from the gardening, leave that to the hired help.
Coming back home to the electric mobility scooter is going to be such a drag for M. after the luxury and space of the golf buggy and the sheer power of the quad bike!
