You’re probably one of very few that has managed to get kitties to use the scratching post. Thing is shredded lol. All my old ones just used the corner of the couch WHEN THE POST WAS RIGHT NEXT TO IT.

Alfie loves his - it’s right by the door, so he runs to it whenever we get home and stretches up high on it so we can give him good scritchies and head kisses. It’s very sweet.

I’ve replaced the rope on mine, of course they also go the couch as well 😾

Thats actually like the fifth iteration. I rebuilt that cat tree with cypress from a standard cardboard one years ago, and i regularly have to redo the sisal. Great height for them to just straight up hang

New fridge installed. I’m celebrating now. Cheers 🍻
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Fabulous news. Just in time for you to have a chill weekend.
SituationCake@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Cheers! May it provide you many years of cold drinks!
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Yay.

Sneaking a small steak before Boyo gets home. Feels a bit mean, but i’m not the one banned from hot chewable things.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Anyone need anything from Costco?
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
A large mojito please.

Had some rather nasty glass in the rear bike tyre on the ride in this morning. Time to call the bike shop and get Marathons put on

My week off has not gone to plan, thank’s to this pesky cold I was gifted with. I haven’t been too sick, but haven’t had the energy (or breathing capacity) to get much done. So I’ve mostly been sitting on the couch doing nothing much, and instead of having the gardening etc. I was planning on doing finished I have achieved nothing and have a pile of chores that have built up that I need to get on top of.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
but you looked after yourself and that is super important 🫂

There was a dude on the train the other day standing near the door. He had a satchel bag in front of his body when some sort of amber liquid started to pool around the floor.
I could’ve said something but we just had a lunatic on and I would’ve had to shout YOUR LEAKING because he had ear buds in and I didn’t want to embarrass him because I didn’t know what kinda system he had down there. Pointing wasn’t an option because he was staring at the roof.
Then he swapped doors, looked down, felt around in his bag and pulled an empty keep cup out. I was relieved. He was not. By this time that trail has made its way down the carriage.
So guys if there is some wisdom I could pass on to you is this - don’t put all your faith in a keep cup in your bag. They will eventually let you down.

I’ve been putting away my grocery delivery and now have an alarming quantity of nuts to mix together. That’s what happens when you buy bulk packs for value but don’t like any of the pre-made mixes so buy individual bags of each nut type. I just counted and there is 3.5 kilos there!
As well as the groceries I’ve had a fruit & veg box delivered, plus egg powder and chicken stock, and there is dog food delivery coming overnight. I think I’m well and truly set for a while now.

Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago

the broth was cooked 2 days ago, chicken carcasses were boiled for six hours then blended, bones and all, then strained. Fish bouillon cubes were added
it was too much

My body clock got me sleeping in til 6am now lol
Also, I believe Bottom Racer had a bogong moth infestation recently? Well I’ve been seeing HEAPS on my balcony. Like, not a colony, but at least 10 per day have been fluttering around and then dipping. The weather must be good for them to get down with each other lol
PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I’ve only seen odd ones here and there, but I’ve been reporting the sightings to the moth tracker (melb zoo) website. Apparently they want to know if you are them and you send a picture you took. So I’ve been taking pics of moths. It’s kinda fun. For me anyway.
Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Catfish@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Yay for sleep! Haven’t seen any giant moths, but plenty of tiny ones, and those annoying pot plant gnat things.

Watching Tonga vs Lebanon in the rugby. I know very little about rugby but the neighbours are Samoan so we’re gonna get loud. The battle is on. Go the Cedars. 🇱🇧
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
At the mercy of the family to come pick me up now. Today’s the sort of day you could duck off early if you’d like, but I’ve no way to get out of here

I had previously spent hours setting up printer so it would set up instantly and be printing in seconds, because I needed it to be urgent, then I forgot how to do it all because why would I need to know
it has been reset , now takes ages 😐
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
So since I had such good results with meal shakes before I have bought a vegan one. Let’s see how it works out. 🤞
