Better watch out for the awning Wendy .......... some idiot in a little blue (Black?) car is trying to overtake the big brute of a bus on the wrong side !!!

Bit cooler for you? (or colder?)

[Dot]

Looks lovely Wendy, how are the girls liking the sea air? x
Remember to pack stuff away at night

[weezanickinoff]

Yeh the awning didn't stay down long at all..........cause o' those idiots tryin' to pass all the time!!!!

Oh! Yes a whole lot cooler and yep Dotty the girls are lovin' it, all those seagulls to check out, mind you their water dish'l have to moved to higher ground, the wind keeps filling it with......everything!!
But yeah a good spot to stay a while and explore.

Did you notice the little (Egyptian) snails on the grass stems, wheat stems fence posts or anywhere else they can get off the ground, don't pick them up and put them in the bus, they will come to life during the night and infiltrate every where. (Ask me how I know)

[weezanickinoff]

Yeah we did notice them as far back as Tailem Bend SA.....thought about collecting them but didn't........phew, lucky..............Soooo how do you know???

Cheers

SWMBO decided to pick a stem of them to have a close look, took them in the bus, during the night she found one of the little blighters in the bed!
Talking to a Harvest contractor down the road, he said they have all kinds of problems trying to sort them out of the wheat, to use his description it was like trying to sort fly sh*t out of pepper. They were introduced by the Gypsum bulk Tankers carried them in ballast, they are sometimes referred to as Gypsum snails.
