Round Table Revisited

[just_me_karen]

And so Lord of the String said unto the peoples, "Go forth anew. Seek a land you can call your own."

The people saw it was good.

So, on the last day the people said their solemn goodbyes and began the long journey to the promised new land.

And so began the new land and its people were joyous!

Welcome, to the Return of the Round Table known as...

"Round Table Revisited" (RTR)

This is what they look like.

They are only about 3-4 centimetres long and curl up into a tight coil if you disturb them.

Eww they look awful, especially in the pics where there's hundreds of them. Thank goodness for that great big sandy patch in the middle of Australia lol

Oh my. I just read around. Lol.

Gosh TGSE - I had not heard that but reading the text in your link, I see they have made their way to Kwinana and Rockingham so no wonder they have also got to Freo

Good morning Stringsters

Tanties are not a good look, especially in grown adults.

Eeeeek, those millies look disgusting. Next time you boast about the wonderful west Laney, I will 'remember the millipedes'

Hot and humid here today and off to work for me.

Have a good day everyone

Good Morning Everyone

morning all 

We were staying in Central Vic a couple of years ago and there was a grasshopper plague. You could see them blowing in on the wind. The ground was covered in them, and every time you went outdoors you had to keep brushing yourself down. They were everywhere, It was creepy

Good morning Stringers 🙂 Yes, definitely not a good look but it's just the usual, Prim.

Deb I've been in a plague like that...locusts...they came in like a dust storm, amazing...and ate every green bit in our garden and lawn...and they even tried eating the clothes on the line lol. It was devastating for the farmers.

Christmas party soon....number two of three. Criez.

hi Karen, yes they're awful I would get them in my hair and hated the feeling of them flying onto my bare skin eeeww!!

I remember the supermarket floor was covered in them, every time the automatic doors opened they would fly in and they would crunch under your feet. You couldn't get away from them anywhere
