This Aussie has had a satisfying day... played a bit of table tennis with the girls, did some cooking, had an afternoon snooze and then went for a walk for about an hour around the farm - wished all the cows a Happy New Year. We're about to tuck into tea - smells good!

The weather has been delicious today - just a few puffy clouds scudding past and mild temperatures. Like my husband said - a perfect spring day (except that it's mid-summer here). Southern WA has had it's coolest start to summer for over 80 years, but I'm not complaining - I don't like the heat.

Happy New Year to you all - my other family!
