NOVEMBER ALREADY

I CAN'T BELIEVE i've already lived here for sixteen months.  After getting the bathroom done and now having a good working studio space, I'm finally getting on to the garden.  Little by little.

Had a lovely weekend with Sunny, Luke and Etta.  lovely weather, a swim around the wreck, dinner at the great little Italian pizza place in Portarlington and time for Etta in the playground opposite. It was a lovely evening with a gorgeous full moon.

I'm still not swimming, this gastric condition persists but finally i'll see the docs at the hospital tomorrow. hope they do the scopes, i need to know what's going on.

I've been down to the bay for a few visits to take photos though, and we're still having our weekly knitting catch up at the shop.

THE EASTERN ROSELLAS are still around every day, i can hear the female scratching around in the birdbox right now but i don't know what she's doing in there. it's been many weeks now, i wonder if she'll get around to laying. 

the crimson rosella is here every day too, sitting in the nearby liquidambar and piping his song

More eco dyeing 

this time with euphorbias, 

seeing if i can get anything 

useable for Romeo & Juliet.
