The eagle has fallen - at work

Perhaps so much rain has fallen, and the strong wind this morning put too much strain on the mounting?




How it should look:

Little green ginger jar


Bought online from @visualimpactinteriors on IG.

Found garden magazines

Lots of reading in these. I had them packed away from my Albury days. Can't recall how I acquired them. They are a bit wet from rain, but will dry out ok, and have some good reading therein.


African violets

These seem to have taken off in their little incubator. I'm pleased as they are so pretty, and involve no work at all!






Fav wall plaque


I've had this since my Albury days. I had it sitting on the front fence here, although it deteriorated over the years, the concrete would become crumbly, and it would hang lopsided.


Eventually, some bad weather wind slammed it onto the ground, and it broke into several pieces. I tried to stick it together with concrete glue (attempts can be seen in the top photos) but...to no avail.

I finally had to throw it out. Now I'm looking for something similar.

Henning fixes my taps

I have had all sorts of problems since I moved in, from tap ends falling off, to leaky washers.
Recently I was outside, whipper-snipping when a truck stopped. It was Henning (Anthony's friend) who said 'gee it's not often you see a girl whipper-snipping'. He's very old-fashioned.

Anyway, I asked him if he would come look at my taps sometime, and he finally came this weekend (last). It is good to have them done, and no longer being a pain in the a___.




Wet day in the garden

Sooo much rain this March!










From what it was!
