Wattlebirds are chasing the lorikeets offa the flowering carmelia tree. Must be some goodness in those flowers.

Pinch, punch, first day of the month.
smack and a tickle for being so quickle
gees, it's pretty quiet here π
and I might go for a walk down the beach π
BEEEEACH. I went for a beach walk yesterday and it was glorious. The water looked absolutely stunning, but unfortunately we took the car that isn't prepacked with towels and swimming gear.
anyone got good recs for duct cleaners? Our locals have shat the bed for me. Definitely want to give them a quick hose out before we start firing up the heater
Nobody who advertises on FB.
Mentioning ducts or steam cleaning got you an automatic block for scamming on my old Community group.

Drat Boyoπ! I have my birthday prezzie early again because finding a hiding spot in an entire house and shed is apparently impossible. Would be a useless spy. Now I wanna built Lego and have to work for hours still πΏ
observe the person you want to hide something from
put the object where they never go
there are common places, men hide things in their car, often where the spare tire is
women hide things in the laundry, often in the washing powder
Heh. Maybe if I bought a grow light with a timer I could ripen things indoors.
Nah. Thereβs not enough room and electricity is expensive. Iβm not doing all that.
for shits I actually built a solar powered grow light (it was on the eastern side of the house and supplemented a hydro cage that had the perfect spot right next to the back door...right up against a wall the house itself shaded). 'twas a fun project

The LED lights used these days are pretty cheap to run, and you can get cheap usb grow light sets with a built in timer. You just don't want then anywhere you are looking too often, they are often coloured lights which make your vision go funny when you look at them too long.
I mostly use them for raising summer seeds indoors and growing basil over winter. I wouldn't go overboard in trying to do an indoor setup, but a small system for a few herbs or seedlings is quite affordable these days.
