Where did you go, BD? Still hot up your way so wouldnt be surprised if you have melted. You got a great bit of land up there anyway. Wet season on its way so greener than ever I expect.

Keep meaning to take a few photos and get back out in the garden. And spring is a good time for the garden. Best thing about plants, if your pushing to get some time throw some seeds around or quickly plant something. At least plants will keep working.

No time for posting the weekend, spent 2 days in the car and 710 kms later had more furniture.....apparently when you have a GF that also has a 14 y/o daughter.....you need stuff, who knew :dunno:

must admit, been gonna take some up date photos of our veg garden to. But got side tracked with the daughters wedding. Hopefully we can get back on track now

Thats more like it!
Funny how I post something random to try and get the conversation rolling again and then go away for 2 days!

Yeah SM, Wet Season is here, I spend my life on the Lawn mower - Lucky it drives me around and has 2 stubby holders.

How did you go with the pups gnash? Your obviously looking to get another, are you goin for a bully again?

Yeah they look real good, the price tag is the killer $1500 :scared2:

but you get what you pay for and the breeder is an "all right bloke"
We went through all the pic's and liniage of how they come about right back to great grandfathers (sires) and Mothers (dams)
He showed me how and why he bred from certain dogs and not others, how to check the heads of new puppies to work out how much bone will move forward etc etc.
Has even invited me to the btcwa (bull terrier club western australia) and to the shows where they are put in the ring.
In short it was a very informative trip to see David, his family have been breeding BT's for three generations...but....the $'s are going to be a problem so I will have to save and wait for the next litter i think.

That is pretty steep mate, but at the end of the day you cant put a price on your best mate.

Congrats on your Daughters Wedding 'Hopeful'l.

Everyone will be glad to know i havent been pestering you with my homebrew recipes lately, I have been rather slack. Still drinking though.

Bullarab will cost you $300 to $400 and they have hybrid vigour :thunbs:

But won't earn me $1500 everytime I put it over a bitch :thumb:

about to start a beetroot and lime brew. Youngest daughter loves it, and now that she is not pregnant anymore she has been on our case for a new lot.
