tales from the coast

Hi all,
I hope the 39ers arent reading this today, as that would mean they are not at Cunj-where Im hoping they are.Who in their right mind would ever knock back a few days there-my home away from home!
Welcome Lucy and Clare. Oh yes, the Ghost garden, now that you mention it, I might see if I can find something on the www! Im thinking NT Claire would have really loved it, dont you think so? Good luck with the new school year gals.
Hasi looked pretty horrible after his first day today, and that was even without the kids there. I took him straight off to the beach when I got home, which helped.
Nearly into February, my favourite month- the boss must have known, or else realised I was looking like I might hit the wall at any moment, as he's given me a week off. I should paint the house, but Im thinking road trip...just have to get the car now. Probabaly too early to hit Darwin, I'll save that till Mart and Claire are more organised.
I have just finished eating one of the first few cucumbers we have grown here at no 40. I know we have some veteran vege gardeners on the blog, but for beginners like Hasi and myself, it is very exciting.
We are slowly organising a fenced area so we can get some chooks -that will be another interesting experience! Ron Iso told me the best ones are isa browns...easy going!
Ihear dad you and Ron may be at Sussex in Feb, so keep me posted, as I might come down for a night or two.
Not much of a breeze here tonight, how's it up the north end??
Moo - frangipanis are on their way-I do get around to things eventually.
Cheers for now, Love Zak
