Here’s some blurb about the album & cover from a book about Joy Division ‘An Ideal For Living’ that I have, if you’re interested.
I think you suit the t-shirt better than Albo btw

Yours is truer to the actual album cover although the original graphic is much smaller

The ‘rat pack’- this season’s lambs. Still a few more to come..Can’t come quick enough. Need some sleep..

Not the most salubrious accommodation but at least it’s dry, sheltered from the wind & rain & they’ve got another for company..#springlambs

These 2 little orphans will be living with our chickens for a while. Both have perked up after a few bottle feeds today..#springlambs

When I was a kid, you never went into the ram or bull paddock unless you could out sprint it..
This is Neville, 1 of our current Dorper rams. So good natured and docile. I had to clip his hooves recently. Alone. He’s 90+ kg, I’m 68 kg. Flipped him on his back. Job done in minutes, no struggle..🙂

Started lambing Friday night- 8 so far including triplets..long way to go
Shot 12 foxes in the last week..115 for the year
Won’t be sleeping much for a while

This is our setup. Love the soft lighting & warm organic sound of retro hifi.
The speakers are around the corner facing up into the kitchen & bench where I spend the majority of my time..

These showed up for it yesterday..thankfully high-quality valves are still available.

Great shot of the vineyard and the Vic Alps beyond on a frosty morning, from the vineyard next door by a colleague.

Waiting in the shed for the rain shower to pass so the sheep can be fed. No pressure…

Finally our creek is flowing again after more than 6 months dry..
Such a beautiful sound..🎶

Throw the fricking stick Dad!
These two spend their days pestering us to throw bits of old vine wood as we try to get through pruning 100K vines

Likewise with us last week. Both rainbow ends in the paddock. Backhoe is probably the way to go..

Nice to see some water in the creek, although it will need another dump to start flowing. Has been dry as the proverbial for months..

Here’s 4 ( there’s so many! ) that sent me down a different road musically

Where’s our food?? We’ve been waiting for hours..worst service ever..no stars for this place 👎

Took my 96 yo mum for a ride in the sidecar today. She loved it- reminded her of when she & my dad used to get around on bikes

This little girl decided a trip on the motorbike was preferable to the long walk home from next door..

Never saw them live, but I’ve still got this..loved The Clash but loved Joy Division more..

Sheep in the vineyard..can mean one of two scenarios- someone left a gate open…or vintage is finally over. Thankfully it’s the latter- two incredibly intense and exhausting months that’s going to take some time to recover from..

Bringing the sheep home from next door after some unauthorised but necessary voluntary bushfire hazard reduction work
