Just picked the very last navel orange off the tree 😞

 

I was salivating as I was peeling it - does that happen to any of you?

 

Glad to say it is DELICIOUS so I was not disappointed.

 

Sad it is the last one for this season though - at least the last home grown one lol

I love home grown fruit, but I usually quarter oranges because I don't like peeling them. I've got three fat tomatoes on my alien vine, I can't believe it fruited during mid winter. I decided to weed it this morning because it was getting a bit overrun.

I looked at bom and saw the cold front that is hanging over Perth... and noticed another one following behind it lol

Do not send it here, please.

Those quartered oranges always remind me of Saturday morning basketball on the school oval lol.

 

I did not enjoy them then, and don't now - there is something in the oil in the skin which makes my mouth sting.

 

That is why I peel them 

 

Oh Karen - it sounds like you are going to be over-run by the tomato crop again this summer.

 

 

Don't tell us not to share it with you (the weather that is)

 

You know what sharing, caring friends j*oono and I are

Good afternoon Stringsters 🙂

 

I guess you have to have a sense of humour to appreciate what posts should actually go in the chuckle store. I don't think Monny even meant it for trolling. 

 

I am free....I am free....from work that is. Three blissful days of no phones and no talking if I can help it 🙂

 

Happy Birthday to the Flashie household. I love pink fairy cakes 🙂

 

 

My grandmother used to say something odd, every time we had quartered oranges. She'd say it smells like "second class to woywoy" lol

That's because, in her day, Sydney people would travel to woywoy on the train...maybe if they couldn't afford to go further.

Hi Prim, do you have some relaxation planned for your long weekend?

Hi everyone,

We've had O.K. weather here today. there are some funny posts in the chuckle thread and some not so funny, maybe it depends on a person's sense of humor whether they get what's funny and what isn't if that makes sense.

And Happy Birthday to the person in Flashie's house

Ahhhhh - the changing of the guard - Prim, you have three days free, I have three days at work!

 

Good on you though - it is about time .... ENJOY!

 

Some must have been standing behind the door when senses of humour were handed out Prim 

 

Love your grandma's saying Karen - I can assure you though I was not travelling second class to woy woy 

 

The Flashie household sure has some celebrating to do - Happy Birthday to the special people.

Good Afternoon/Evening Everyone 

 

Hope that you are all as well and as happy as can be .

Thanks for the BD wishes Deb .A few coughs and sneezes didn't stop them from enjoying their day .

 

My dd had her follow up appointment at  Paed outpatients yesterday (we received the appointment letter the day before..which was lucky it wasn't any later) .The paed told her that she is 'discharged from hospital now' (she looked confused about that and later asked what they meant ..."Mum they thought I stayed in hospital" ) and that she needs to be followed up outside the hospital and have some blood tests just to check all is OK in another month .(that's me...she wasn't  about more bloodtests).

Glandular Fever results not back yet though it really doesn't change very much .

 

There was a Camel on the run in Bendigo yesterday (I think it made the National News?). I heard some funny stories from the past on the radio today ...an elephant running around the main Streets of Dunolly, A kangaroo found high up in a tree (thought to be put there by a 'big cat')...that big cat was later found to be some blokes who had had too much to drink ...poor kangaroo.

 

I've just had a read of the chuckle store ... some posts really are funny .If I sought fame I might think that I am a star going by my own posts added to the store .It must upset some people to make mistakes themselves and have them noted in the chuckle hall of fall.

 

I should be cooking tea...I've just discovered that we are out of bottle gas (more due soon) ...so it may just be pies and soup (not together) heated the microwave tonight .

 

 

Take Care and I hope that your night is a good one for you all 

 

Hi Iza

 

I saw the camel walking the streets of Bendigo on last night's news

 

We've only had a goat here, it was grazing out the front of our place, I thought I was seeing things & it was gone by the time I went back for a second look.

 

It's a bit of joke i have with some neighbours in another street, because i rang them at dinnertime and asked them to look over their back fence to see if there was a goat there., they thought I was mad 

 

 

sure enough there it was, a goat. Now they say they'll never doubt anything I say again
