You're on your way to a successful career in the Public Service because you've shown aptitude as a Bean counter.

We rarely see a sparrow anymore, they have been eradicated by the Indian Mynahs. 

We see the coastal Rosellas, what a treat.

I love rain, we have been getting rain rain rain and more rain for days now. I'm not complaining it's the humidity I don't like.

 

So glad the rain fell in outback QLD, they really needed it there, hope it lasts.

Standing in the dark is not a good place, or time, to run out of flint.

The Zippo's a good lighter, but replacing the flint means going through the fiddly process of unscrewing the spring, dropping the flint (little bigger than a match head) down the tube, then putting the spring back in and screwing it into place.

Not an ideal activity to undertake when you can't see what you're doing... Smiley LOL

I could hunt around for a spare lighter, but in the time it would take me to find it (inside, where it's light, and I can see what I'm doing...), I could just put a new flint in the Zippo, and be done with it.

 

Brilliant piece of engineering, the Zippo.

I noticed, when I started browsing Ebay, and the internet, that there's a lot of them out there (and some of them aren't genuine, Gosh! Really?!).  Smiley LOL

I've got a beautiful "rosewood" case "Zippo", I "know" it's a Zippo because it has Zippo stamped on the case... Smiley Wink

 I got it because it's a nice looking piece of wood, and  it has the fish on it. It looks good sitting on a shelf, and makes a good talking piece - the lengths that people will go to in order to make something look "authentic". They did a really good job with the lettering. Smiley LOL
