Looking cute too in
their fur coats, and that is just the wild life. It doesn’t do
much for the rose bush though which has had its leaves stripped like
others of its kind. The culprits are wallabies. They browse the
garden like possessed web surfers. The small but prolific lemon tree
is a recent gastronomic discovery. The lemons add zest to their diet
no doubt. The critters have become gourmets. Herbs are a delight:
everything from basil to rosemary is nibbled down to stalks and
twigs. Patio pots full of skeletal remains would do justice to the
most bizarre tastes of dark souled ghouls who detest flowers. It
suits the winter season in a way, and the rabbits who have been known
to ring bark trees, seem to have been ousted this year by the local
mob.
Talking about being
starkers, the Dark Mofo Nude Solstice Swim will take place next week
on June 22nd. It nearly did not happen, being described
as ‛contrary to public decency’ initially by the police, but it
is back on again, (not with the clothes though).
