I think these bods have nothing better to do than fiddle with things that work fine already!  (I fiddled myself and found that if you click on "O comments" it will come up where you can comment yourself.  Maybe that worked before too? )

Rosey, over here our grass seems to grow the best in autumn and winter, after the summer when everything dries out and goes brown.  Of course, in our area we have no snow.  G seems to be mowing every 3-4 weeks or so.  What a huge area you have!

Marion - I hope you haven't had any other aftershocks since you posted!  Good to hear how well your nephew's boat has done.

Just back from a trip to Melbourne (1200 km away).  It usually means a drive down to Adelaide for overnight, then an all-day drive on to Melbourne.  At our age, though we always stay an extra night somewhere halfway there.  Our eldest son has just moved over with his gf.  She's a singer and is hoping to advance her career in a much bigger city; he's applying to do his Masters in Architecture at one of the unis there.  Our youngest (Shannon) has settled in to life back at uni and hopes to have his PhD finished in 3 years.  His wife has just been accepted to do Librarianship by correspondence which will take her 3 years as well.  So they won't be moving anytime soon.  The 6 of us met up for Mother's Day lunch, which was lovely.
Caught up with middle son and family on the way home but resisted having a cuddle with baby Charlotte because I had a sore throat/cold.  She's growing well - almost a month old already!

Hugs to all.  Off to morning tea with a friend.
