Distractions after the Car Smash
After all the fuss re the car crash I have been involved in other issues even joining a very amateurish theatre group..more on that on a future blog. In this wonderful place we live there is so much to do for we pensioners ( IF you are prepared to get of your arse and avago !) I can now continue to get back into animals & creatures we have encountered on our wonderful traipse around Australia (hopefully we will do once again June or July )


All the years I lived in England I was terrified of spiders no matter how small they are ! Incidentally there are NO venomous spiders in the UK.Australia is FULL of deadly,dangerous arachnids! Since living here I have overcome my fears and respect their right to be around (rule of thumb? leave them alone and they wont bother you!) I am now fully trained to remove spiders from our home using a glass tumbler and small sheet of paper. Redbacks WILL be killed humanely ( a highly charged boot crushing them instantly!!) There are so many interesting creatures in this wonderful land and just to see them in their home environment (i.e not caged) is jaw dropping.Can’t wait to get back on the road again.All creatures in this blog are roaming freely with the exception of the Snake,even the crocodile was photo’d in the wild (altho we were ready to run very quickly at the slightest movement!)
