Good morning daily

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

Which in conjunction with the exhaust gas temp gauge helps me drive to get the best economy and power. (but, shhh, it was really just something to do.)
Just use the diesel engine to drive a generator when needed and power the bus with batteries, solar and an electric drive ...... best economy you could hope for .... well as far as fuel usage anyway ... $$ wise, you might need to do a bit more travelling to recover the $$ outlay, but it certainly would give you plenty to do for the next few lock downs ;)

Good morning everyone, and happy bacon and egg day. It was a top day here so we went for a walk down on the ocean beach. Finished the little table then made a planter box to hang on the fence. Looks like another top day on the way for today. Have a great day everybody, safe travels.
Cheers

Mother bird has abandoned her nest.
Apparently when I trimmed the hedge it made the site too exposed. As you can see (bottom left) it’s right next to the path to my shed.
… and our resident Bearded Dragon has not yet found the eggs. So today I’ll remove it (and finish the hedge trimming). 😀

Amazing how much mud & twigs went into the foundation of the nest! Must have weighed at least 1kg when I removed it… no wonder the hedge was sagging a bit on that side! 😳

Good morning everyone. Forgot to put the phone on charge last night. Was flat this morning. Completed a little shed in the backyard yesterday afternoon. Now the mower and garden tools have their own space. Looks like a bit of ordinary weather coming our way this week. Safe travels everybody, have a great day. Enjoy your golf Jon. I'm glad they are finally removing some restrictions.

Are you going to try to hatch them Ray???? I wouldn't advise sitting on them, but wrapped in an electric blanket or the nest in an old electric frypan on warm with the lid on might do it ....
