Still faffing about, dithering between WordPress and Blogger. The poor tic-tac chap’s waving his hands about, completely confused as to what odds to give. How the hell does he think I feel!
Here’s a picture of sugar cane. Some is being cut now (July) and sent to one of the local mills.
As I mentioned, I’ve been uncertain whether to muddle along here or try again at Blogger. The jury’s still out…
While I was doing all this fiddling, I remembered another blog I’d started, a few years ago. I have no recollection of taking this photo (over the years I must have snapped dozens of boating events on the Waitemata Harbour.) But I rather like it, so I’m foisting sharing it with you. That’s the Auckland Harbour Bridge, in case you didn’t know.* ED: this image is, apparently, from the WordPress collection of possible headers!
Ooh! I’ve just noticed the time! I’d better get some breakfast sorted as John is coming to cut some of the Indigofera arrecta this morning. The reasonably warm weather and unseasonal rain has done wonders! As I write this, I’m wearing a fleecy hoodie and socks**, but I’ll no doubt peel off a couple of layers ere long.
A few weeks ago, when the bottom almost fell out of the thermometer, I noticed what looked like snow in a very shady part of the garden …
Definitely not snow and my knowledge of fungi is pretty rudimentary, but I think this was (possibly) some sort of slime mold. It was gone after a day or so.
I think this will have to do for now; I have “other plans” for the day. Ooh! I bet you’re all dying to know what!
Best guess might win a prize! Or not…
*Perhaps this is not one I took. If so, apologies to the photographer.
**And pants! Of course.
