Traveling rock

In my old leather jacket (you know the ratty one I have had since I was 15) I felt something strange today in the liner. Maneuvering it to the hole in the liner I found it was a smooth round blue rock about the size of my thumb (I'll have to send it off to Eric for analysis :) )

And I started to think; Where did I get a rock in my jacket? This jacket has been with me everywhere I have gone. Could have come when I was sleeping in the park over night in Japan and used it as a pillow? Or camping when I didn't have a proper sleeping bag and used it to lay on between me and rocks? Or maybe coming off the BMX and hitting the pavement at some point.

Still - wonder where this rock came from and how long it has been with me? I think I'll put it back in the liner - just in case.

Potato Plants - Two of them, they are massive!


New tomato plants, the potatoes help to shelter them.

Argentina Garlic - We found this sprouting at the farmers market put it in the planter and BAM


Cos Lettuces


Japanese Clumping Onion - Why not!


Ozzie Garlic


Shiso - Japanese herb


Tomato plants and Basil - They help keep bugs off each other

Yellow Bell pepper / Capsicum - looks orange t0 me!


Little chili plant with a big chili! Hang on there champ


Habanero


Basil


Oregano


Thyme


New tomato plant - sheltered by the potatos


Mint - This punk started off as a bunch of mint from the supermarket, it grew like wildfire and then got a white fungus and just about died. Kasey cut it back to just sticks and we moved with it. For weeks we thought it was dead then BAM! It comes crawling out. Tough bastard. 2 years old and kicking.

Ozzie Hotel Room

We are having out first guests come stay with us, friends from here, so Kasey and myself (dragging my feet and muttering) bought a bed (large double! You lucky bastards), mattress, etc etc.

SO! We now have somewhere for people to stay :)

Please start booking in your trips / times and we'll send you a quote :D

If you can't afford to pay us we have plenty of work around the house to do ;-)

Who is first?!
