Bits and more bits

I have been a bit on the lazy side lately, no posts much and I haven't keep up with my reading on the blog the day time weather has been wonderful coolish winter days with lots of warm sunshine, well that's all over now it's freezing even when the sun is shining,  so I'm inside with the heater on drinking hot coffee.
We did cut down the dead pine tree in the back yard and it's been dead for a while so it's been burning in our fire place smells lovely next cool dry day I will burn all the little bits in the back yard burner.

Some good size logs here.

And lots of rubbish.
My son was down for a week and a bit so that ment a trip to Bunnings so I got some more gravel,

and these little fellows were a dollar each so I got three.
The fairy garden was moved under the tree's nothing grows there and I lost a gobblin when wood cutting so it's safer here.

New cleaner and the old one works now I've cleaned out all the filters so now I've got two.

When my daughter in law came down we went out dinner in Parramatta.
so of course they has to pull faces
I tried twice BUT it didn't work.

Lots of buildings going up, there are four cranes in this very small area but you can only see two, how they move anything without banging into each other is anyones guess.

And a giant white rabbit in the park not sure what this is about but just too cold to cross the street to find out.

My daughter in law saying hello to the twins.
Drummy has really slowed down in the laying dept so the beer fairy wrote her name on the last one so she would get a drummy egg for breakfast.
My son was down to replace all the wood around the windows in the house at Rosehill and paint outside so he was pretty busy.



So he took a couple of pictures of the process.

Words for Wednesday...last week that is and the new car......................

He was good looking blue eyes and blond, tall and burly just perfect.
But as she looked down he was standing with the aid of a walking stick, just recovering from a motor bike accident, well we all need a rebel in our lives sometimes, the alarm bells rang as a member of a 
bike gang she wasn't sure if she wanted to get involved with him.
 The son is visiting from QLD, he is down for two weeks.
The new car make the journey, it's a lovely thing I like the BMW a very neat car and a new one is always better, the beer fairy has never owned a new car in his life and I've never owned a car.
 

 Their engine is so small and compact.
This is a posed photo as if you couldn't tell, father and son looking silly.

Goodbye to a huge gum tree.

I  finished my painting and hung it in the lounge room.
I have a furry visitor for a while, he finds the sunny spots and warms his back.

At night he likes the lounge
We will soon be dozing, me too.
Leeroy has her spot to.
This is a massive gum tree two houses up from my back yard and they cut it down today, that's kind of sad because it was always full of birds in summer but these trees have a problem in gardens they drop branches without warning and a lot have come down and caused a lot of damage in the storms and high winds we had lately.
This guy was the only one cutting he had lots of safety ropes but that's such a dangerous job seeing he was using a chain saw.





I got this one as the branch was falling


All gone it's always been there since we lived here.
I took some sunny garden pictures too as it was such a lovely fine day for winter





 Of course drummy wanted to get into the act.




 The only flowers a few nodding violets.



 but still nice and green
 Well it's goodbye from Angus
Just turning cold now.
