SHE SAID:

Six of us: Wayne, Wendy, Tanya, Jan, Luc, and I headed east for an orchid hunt. We had a brilliant day, with loads of orchids found by everyone. The highlight for me was the Shy Limestone Spider, & the Boyatup China, also Tanya’s Bird orchid find, which might be a rare one, too.

Everyone had a great time & all we were knackered when we got back to town after 5pm.

Kylie made a nice dinner, Thai Beef salad, & a ginger cake for dessert.

HE SAID:

I tackled the wood pile again today, at least until the chainsaw battery went flat. It takes a few hours to recharge so I had a break before having another go. I'd estimate that I am about halfway through with the logs, having taken a few barrow loads of cut wood up to the wood shed.
