So many festivals and working 7 days a week for the last 6 weeks has done me in – we both needed to just veg totally today, and I did!

This week, I’ll catch up on your blogs and find something (hopefully) of interest to share with you.
Yesterday we were at a Food & Wine Festival in Mindarie Keys, 10 minutes up the coast from us.
Turning around to face the sea breeze, I spied two little birds sitting on a wire, behind. A bit like us this month, barely hanging on but doing what we must.
(I wrongly presumed they were winging their way back to Northern Climes but have now identified them as native Hooded Robins, who also live in Australia.)
