For a giggle...

Been dancing across a Solar Disc and Star Disc out in the wilds in the evening darkness...

So where's the Solstice?

(Hopefully, no Pagans were offended for appreciating the spectacle!)

Well that's the yard done for another week, but damn them galahs made a mess of the lawn (yes I can finally call it that now) over the last few morning diving in for the grass seed.

Anyhow, it seems that I'm going to have new tenants moving into the house again and I havn't even finished cleaning up from the last lot. :-O

I got that news just as the mower needed more fuel which was the only reason I even heard the phone go off.

Well I reckon that it's "Beer O'clock" time now.

Cheers.

No rain here today and the temp only reached 23C (felt like 22C), but we are expected to get another taste of summer over the next 2 days. So far this has been the coolest summer yet since I've been up here.

Cheers.

Yeah, they're not fighting, I think Duo is hiding under some shelving and Grace is in a chair near the living room window a/c unit.

Duo is heavy, but he does not want to be on my shoulder, he was briefly on the cat tree, but only in passing.

I found with this tanks height I’ll need a plumber since I have to use a sprayer as the tank won't fit under the faucet, it took 12 mins to fill it and yes the tank’s dented, I didn’t feel it was worth risking a puncture to try and get the dent out, but they have water. The faucet still needs replacing, one of these days I’ll call heart plumbing and have them install a replacement faucet that I have here, lots of projects and not much money. I tried to orient the waterer so that maybe one could eat and one could drink at the same time, I don’t know if that will work, but we’ll see. The countertop between the sink and the waterer is cleared of any non cat related objects which includes any dust and debris.

The above pic is before I slowly filled the waterer, all of them fit under the cabinets.

It does provide water, even if the faucets sprayer is almost totally clogged with calcium carbonate.
I cleaned the sprayer out with a pocket knife as best as I could.

It doesn't spray water as the water tank's cap is spring loaded and can be bought by itself if a replacement is needed, so no water was spilled.
