Cuteness, Success and Woohoo

What a busy little time!

Amongst all the learning to be singleness, bacheloring, gadding about the country, reestablishing old friendships, and building new ones I have actually managed to achieve some stuff.

After a lengthy disappearance the little girl duck came back, with these ridiculously cute little ones in tow.
I thought it humorous to gather them up in the same type of vessel where some of them are sure to go.

Unfortunately a canny little quoll got in to the cage they were in a few days later and killed four of the ten. My only hope is that it only killed the boys.

Stella the goat is very pregnant, and is so patient about letting me inspect her belly and udder. Money very well spent in a properly hand raised and well bred animal. Winston is getting stroppy around her and will soon move to his own paddock to cry his little heart out.




Many hours of procrastination have finally given way to a great success. The hutches are finished. Now all my clothes fit in the normal part of my wardrobe. I now have room to put all the other bumpf in the top and free up another wardrobe for a prospective housemate.

I spent some time last Saturday with Mister Harry who had finished my symphony. Isn't she pretty?
And she sounds magnificent, great deep drones and a full two octaves of melody strings.
Way cool.

Here you can see the tangents and keys, the wheel and the bridges. There are one-hundred and thirty-nine pieces in the keys alone.
I think Harry shed a tear as he let her go.

Goals for the near future;

• Prepare for Devest
• Prepare for Festival
• Deal with remaining financial issues
• Find a sane, intelligent and clean housemate (who is prepared to bath entirely out of the laundry whilst I rebuild the bathroom)
• Not fall in love

Thank you, you both know who you are.
