Some more pictures from the historic whaling station at Albany (I refused to go into the station itself, but the botanic garden and wildlife collection were worth a visit) #AustralianWildlife #AustralianFlora #BloomScrolling #WestAustralia #WestAustralianFlora

We nearly didn't go out yesterday because the weather forecast was horrible. Fortunately, it was fine for hours and hours while we went places

Trying not to bore everyone with travel photos, but we had a couple of lovely days in the Albany WA vicinity. There have been flowers/flowering plants #BloomScrolling #AustralianFlora

I have the opposite = my black cat insists that 5.30am is time to GET UP, and is very miffed if I don't. She has food, water, and another human she could pester. But no, I am the one who must GET UP.

Cats :)

Have you seen the pig face in flower in front of the house?

Jana has lived with us for 6 years and this is the first time she has ever sat on either of our laps!

Ronni is of course incorrect because she picked the wrong Mr D'Arcy to illustrate her point :)

My kittens, sharing a heated bedroom with me on this bitterly cold Brisbane day, and pretending the sun is warm :)

8 years ago, we adopted Shula (4.5 yo, ish) and she became the keeper of my heart ❤️

She's as still active as a kitten, very needy, naughty, affectionate, curious, and has a remarkable sense of humour.

She is the best thing that ever happened to me.

Happy Gotcha Day, darling girl #cats

Tell me truthfully - Is this a rude message? I freely admit that I have terrible social instincts, but apparently my crime was calling them 'hon'.

I call everyone 'hon'. And this is someone I'd followed for sometime, liked all their posts, reposted many of them, and left comments on too

Will have to block and mute you now because you are so very wrong :)

Firth was good. MacFayden was perfect!

Hilarious. Van Badham tells male authors to stop whining about their lack of success while excoriating male entitlement, and a male author has a sook about it
