Ohhhhhhh….nope haven’t heard of him. Yes we did have a bush fire. Quite a big one too. But thankfully God protect our house and it survived. But the shed, cubby, all the gardens didn’t. But we have rebuilt and replant, and things look great now. 🙂

Yes, definitely history. Especially since it has passed, but you had been beating Kate and I for so long, I thought we were doomed to second and third place forever.
It’s such an exciting story that I’m working on so my fingers flew. Lots of spelling errors but I’ll fix them up when I go back through. 🙂

The name doesn’t ring a bell. What information can you give me to prompt my memory @daeus?

Well, my score is not that big, you know I’m kinda disappointed with it, cause I only got 1354 words written. 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 And that is in less than an hour @daeus. *grins happily.* I went a bit past 9/11 as I had an ending spot coming up. Thanks for writing with me though. 😀

Thankfully not, if you mean about the powerful kick. Although when you see them box each other, well…you can guess.
However, having them in out backyard is real. Before the 2009 Black Saturday Bush fires, we use to have a lot of wildlife come in. Echidnas, Lyrebirds, a goanna, *snakes* 🙁 wallabies, wombat, koalas and a whole lot of birds too.…[Read more] -

😛 We do have rats. *shudders* But thankfully not giant ones. But we do get kangaroos in our backyard occasionally. They look very sweet, but have a powerful kick.

Giant rats was what the first explores to Australia thought a Kangaroo was. So I was basically making fun of a few Aussie things while being proud of them. I definitely live in an awesome place.

@kate-flournoy sounds kinda scary. But my prayers will be with you. And I know that the out come is in God’s hands.
@daeus I may be around at 10 or 10:30. I’ll tag you if I can write. -

@timothy-young. No I have not read/heard of W.E. Johns Worrals books. I shall have to ask my brother about them. He is the real Biggles fan. He was the one who started me reading them. Although I guess I have to say thank you to school work (though now I am done with that) 🙂 as I read my first Biggles because of Nepal when we studied it for…[Read more]
