Drifting through life

  The original Words for Wednesday was begun by Delores and eventually taken over by a moveable feast of participants when Delores had computer troubles. Sadly, Delores has now closed her blog forever due to other problems. The aim of the words is to encourage us to write. A story, a poem, whatever comes to mind. If you are posting an entry on your own blog, please let us know so we can come along to read it and add a few encouraging words. This month the words/prompts are supplied by Charlotte and can be found here . This week's words/prompts are: 1.snake  2.linen  3.cake  4.tired  5.letter  6.clip and/or: 1.brush  2.matter  3.rake  4.blue  5.bush  6.read use either list or both, or mix and match, just have fun. Charlotte's colour of the month is Jade Green as seen above the text here. My own story will hopefully appear on this blog on Friday 31st

Drop in to their blogs and have a look.

The accessible beaches begin way up there at number 79, Osborne, Taperoo and Largs North beaches.  Squares numbered 67, 68, 69, are North Haven and Outer...

  It's Kiwifruit season!  The kiwi gold comes first, with the yellow fruit and lighter brown skin, then the green ones a few weeks later, with green fruit and slightly darker brown skin. The ones you see here are the Kiwi gold. Sweet and cold from the fridge and an excellent source of Vitamin K as well as Vitamin C

 I have just now heard on the news that our "One Nation" political leader, Pauline Hanson, wants to make us a "whites only" country and wants to begin mass deportations of illegal citizens in the same manner as that of the US president, lower case "p" because in my opinion he doesn't deserve that title. She also wants our Health Care and Pharmaceutical companies to follow the American model!! She thinks Trump is a great leader, so I say, go and live there!
