As the stupid Gold Coast Council unnecessarily made our street 2 hour parking on weekdays, we had to move the Bushtracker or risk another parking fine. Our friends at the Willow Vale “caravan park” offered to let us park there for a couple of weeks.
We took Bluey for the drive and he was thrilled to see Anne-Marie, especially when she gave him coffee froth and cheese treats! An unexpected bonus was the great coffee and pastrami sandwich generously made by AM.
Back at home we had lots of work still to be done – finalising our washing, bathing Bluey, opening mail and filing paperwork. While we were away our builder did rectification work on our upstairs veranda wall. Unfortunately that left me having to remove the safety rail, touch up the acratex finish, and repaint the wall. This has to be done without letting Tilly escape while the flyscreen is not attached.
We have another problem to deal with as pigeons have made a nest in our gutter, two storeys up where ladder access is limited. Bird poop covers window sills and has dripped down the wall.
In the two days we have been home Tilly has managed to disperse toys around the house. This cow is one of her favourites and has been carried from the front of the house to the back, and put up on top of Bluey’s crate. She lay guarding it.
