Mingus plans his next paw print

We’re busy with all those projects that are acquired with an old house.  This weekend we are painting the kitchen and dining room.  To the extent that Mingus the Cat will let us.

    Brisbane Airport set a winter temperature record of 33.7C yesterday while the usually hot Birdsville in the state’s far west had a balmy 22.8C.

    The odd recordings were courtesy of a northwest wind carrying hot air from central Australia

    Great weather for fire ants, hey
