Latest News.

Our biggest, latest, news is that we are to be Grandparents again. Elin and Jim are expecting a baby boy at the end of May.  To say that we are excited is to put it mildly!!

At the moment we are in the midst of a deadly bush fire period. There are 144 bush fires currently burning in NSW with some of them out of control. Very high temperatures, strong winds and low humidity are making the fire fighters job a nightmare. There has been some loss of property but so far no loss of life in NSW.  In Tasmania its a very different story.  On the east coast there has been extremely heavy loss of property and a lot of people are yet unaccounted for as there is a lot of tourist movement in the state.

Locally, we are having a few days just over the 40C mark and not a drop of rain in sight.

 

The boys pumpkins are going well and I think its about time to pick them and put them into storage.
