Another one already! by Sue Way

The lady who makes the post box toppers has been very busy lately. This time she has already changed it for Halloween! There are ghosts and ghouls, a witch, a spider, Dracula and of course a pumpkin I love this one, it really made me smile on our walk with the dogs. Its lovely to see another craft being kept alive and I hope it inspires others to take it up. Dont forget to check out my special offers. They all have 20% off.

I am in Charge!!! by Janice McFarlane

My grandson Harry is now in year 2 at school and with that comes more grown up responsibilities. Its been an eventful week as he lost his first tooth, which he was happy to show the world. The second event was he was elected onto the school council as one of two representatives in his year, and the same for all the other years. So he was jumping for joy when he arrived home about his new status and he also got a badge to wear stating School Council. Now knowing Harrys personality and the fact he is like a mini tornado, and is also very opinionated my first reaction when told was to laugh and said oh heaven help the school. Then I was told when Harry got home and said he had been voted onto the school council his first words were I am in charge! …I rest my case.

Babies by Vicki Avcin

We have eagerly been waiting for our resident plovers to have their babies and this morning, woohoo, we have two babies. Mum plover normally nests in the front yard of the house across the road but this year we havent seen her for a couple of weeks but had no idea where she was. Dad has been hanging round as he comes and eats food that we throw out for the magpies. Hes slowly been getting gamer and coming right up to the house but there has been no sign of Mum so where she was we have no idea. Now the question is we have two but will there be more as last year it was over a two day period that we saw one, then two, then three and finally four. Seems they didnt hatch all at the same time. We are also waiting now for the magpies to bring their baby/babies down to meet us as they have a nest in a tree in the neighbours place. We know there is one baby but not sure if there is another yet. Love meeting the new locals in spring each year. The ducks had two babies but we think a fox or feral cat may have got them as we only saw them for a couple of days and havent seen them since.
