Ha! Just found the house that used to be that corner shop. Thanks Google maps.

Ah the 1970's! Platform shoes & short skirts. Advertisement from the Women's Weekly. How did we drive wearing those shoes! Keep flatties in the car just for driving? #FashionHistory #Nostalgia

Good morning! Chilly but pretty with mist along the creek as the sunrise gives a touch of colour to the clouds. #sunrise #weather

I would probably go with smaller size just because that's what we got on the new verandah catio. Photo is taken from inside the lounge, looking through glass doors. It's far less obvious than the previous one & still small enough to stop unwanted critters 🦎🐍getting in.

🪶🦜 Current view out the kitchen window! Noisy baby Rainbow Lorikeet being fed by parent. #Birds #AustralianWildlife #Parrots #RainbowLorikeets

We don't have squirrels here in Australia, so whenever my boy Salem sees them on TV he is totally intrigued. Can't quite figure out what they are, a strange looking cat? A possum? He's just fascinated by them.

Naturally, when you have soft beds, blankets, cosy cat kennels, chairs.... you still choose to sleep on the floor? 🤷‍♀️😹🐾 #Cats #Tortitude #Caturday

🐾 Guess who has found a warm, sunny spot on this chilly day! #Cats #Tortitude #AdoptDontShop

Just to prove that pedigree breeding is one thing, but this little ordinary domestic shorthair kitten took out the overall top prize at yesterday's cat show. Personality plus! Playing with toys throughout. #Cats #Kittens

🪶 🦜 The Rainbow Lorikeets have brought their babies for a visit again today. The parents are very protective of the babies, putting themselves between the camera & the babies. Good parents! #Birds #AustralianWildlife #Parrots #RainbowLorikeets

So many beautiful floofs! Our 2 rescues are short hair, easier to stay cool in our Australian summers but Salem 🐈‍⬛ really feels the cold in winter. His tortie sisfur Pina has a thicker undercoat.

The Sulphur Crested Cockatoo babies really are soooo much noisier! 🥴

🪶🦜 Always a relief to see "One Eye" the Rainbow Lorikeet again. Whenever we don't see him for a few days, we fear the worst. Land clearing for urban spread has sent more hawks, falcons, eagles & owls into this area, all hunting for a Lorikeet size meal. #Birds #AustralianWildlife

🪶🦜 Welcome to the world babies! Two new offspring for this Rainbow Lorikeet pair. I'd heard the babies in nearby trees a few times, but the parents only brought them to visit this week. #Birds #AustralianWildlife #Parrots #RainbowLorikeets

It's cold & wet, but the little clouds of mist floating up the valley are enchanting. The white dots occasionally flying across are Sulphur Crested Cockatoos. #Australia #Nature #Weather

Brilliant photo! Purrfect for a Tongue Out Tuesday award. Sleeping blep from Salem! 👇🐾

There's some nasty weather incoming! Icy cold wind just started. #Weather #Storms

Everything old is new again. Palmer's party uses the "New Deal" slogan, used in the US in 1932 by Franklin D. Roosevelt. The RW parties just want to drag us backwards! #Auspol

Me three! I've had 4 over the years, each with different personalities but so loving! Salem is our current rescue sweetheart.

Possibly a more active best friend than the one our current rescue boy has! He puts this toy in different places around the house, has even put it on our bed, but we're not allowed to see him doing this. 🤷‍♀️

Salem & Pina feel your angst Lulu, it's been raining so much for the past 2 weeks here where we are in Australia (winter now). Cold & wet. Inside with litter trays & blankets! They're hoping for a sunny day for garden patrols soon! 🤞🐾🤞🐾

New cat bed, first & last time it's been used! 😹

🪶🦜 A rainy day & somebody is peeping in to look at the kitchen fruit bowl! #AustralianWildlife #Parrots #RainbowLorikeets

Ha! We also have a tortie & a black rescue! 🐾❤️🐾❤️

I'm sure that's exactly how our tortie rescue girl sees herself when she puts her "angry" face on! 😹

🚨 Another romance scammer, using a stolen photo of US actor Cole Hauser, following only women, replies show obvious intent. Block & report! #RomanceScams #Scammers

Rescues always give you so much back! This brofur & sisfur are my current rescues, still living with anxiety issues, but so full of love. Always #AdoptDontShop

🌱 Finally beat the Cockatoos to some of our lemons! 🎉 They come at the first hint of yellow & bite in to get the seeds, then just drop the fruit. Waste! I'd be happier to share if they actually ate the whole lemon & didn't just ruin it. #AustralianWildlife #Gardening

Heading into winter, so I bought one of these nice warm cat beds. Seemed to be liked, so I bought more, thinking they'd each have one, upstairs & down. 🐈 & 🐈‍⬛ haven't used them since! 😮‍💨 #Cats #Caturday

🌱 Did some pruning yesterday, found a few critters today that must have gone into the green bin unseen! The green spider was much bigger than ones I've seen before. No idea what the other ferocious looking insect is & it didn't want to to hang around. #Gardening #Insects #AustralianWildlife
