When on our short walk today (Mark’s attempt really of getting his sick wife out for some fresh air) I realised I didn’t tell you about the morning this week, when we woke up to find Cockatoo in our walnut tree eating the last of our walnuts. I still think Bill (Dad Farrell) that the birds over here are much better to look at. They are far more colourful to start with and the magpie’s have more character, apart from that is when they dive bomb you from the air (they only do this in nesting season, and then it tends to be the ones that are not use to having people around).



Anyway less of my ranting, and more about what we have been up to. I have finally worked out how to use flickr, so hopefully this will encourage me to take more pictures and keep you all updated. Though I do feel that I am missing out somewhat on what you are all up to. Please do help Mark and I keep in touch and feeling so far away at times and let us know what you all have been up to.

Sorry once again I go off the track. Let’s try again. As I have been under the weather this week with a cold and now blocked sinuses Mark take me on a small walk (2.6Km) to a conservation park near a place called Mont Compass. It was beautiful some of the walk even reminded me of walking through the country park in Grimsthope (where my Granny once lived). Take a look for yourselves with the pictures Mark took on the walk.
