I've learnt most of what I know about Barlick from this site and have saved many many picks from this topic. I rarely miss a day checking in.

Cheers and thanks

Is it true that newspaper ink never dries?
I normally keep an old newspaper for wrapping up bits and pieces and the print still leaves smudges on my fingers.

How can something have so many names? When is Devon known as Belgium? When it's the name of a sandwich meat. Known as Devon in many parts of Australia, it's called Belgium sausage in Tasmania, polony in Western Australia, Fritz in South Australia, Windsor sausage in Queensland, Strasburg in Victoria...

I keep thinking about Rocking Horses. We had one when we lived in Fountain St.

Excellent

That Andy Pandy romper suit looks like a 'grow into' suit, I wonder how many kids wore that one over the years, haha.

Or buy a robot vacuum cleaner and you won't have to do either, except for the stairs.

I called my daughter Chelsea because I wanted her to remember that she has English blood from both her parents and all of her grandparents . Another choice for her name was Brooke, or Dale if she turned out to be a boy. Her middle names (2) come from each of her Great Grandma's. She was the only stu...

Ah that's funny. A bit like Barry Mundy

Goodbye Mr. Scripps.
He'll be with Greengrass now.
RIP.

I don't remember my actual first day at School but I remember a few things from spending my first year of schooling at Rainhall Rd. What I do remember is meeting my daughters first Headmaster and some of the other Mums. We all had children starting year 1. It was really just an informal chat and a b...

Spring has sprung here and so have the sour-sobs . Speaking to a lady the other day, she was saying that a new friend of hers (from England) picks them and puts them in vases. The new friend says that there aren't many sour-sobs in England and she thinks they are pretty. I think they are too but ove...

Not clothes but I remember putting on a wedding ring (I think our Mothers) when I was 7 years old, and then found that it wouldn't come off. Our Great Uncle Harold had to get it off using a file. I still have a tiny feint scar.

Good news about Jack.
I knew when my cat was starting to demand things here and there that she was getting better. I told the vet on her last visit that her 'personality' was coming back .

End of Winter here with a hint of Spring.
Except for today when we had stormy weather and they say half of Adelaide had power outages, not my half, but the wind was so strong at one point it snapped a limb off one of my trees. It's about 4 metres long.

My thought is that in the future we will only be able to buy Pedigree dogs and cats. Gosh how expensive will that be for the average family.

Also if the cat owners can't afford to keep up the registrations they might abandon them. This would be cruel and the cats might end-up as feral cats.

No.

Our main shopping centres that have the shops 'all under one roof ' have Concierge Desks these days.

Re: Just Cats - Outdoor roaming cats have an average lifespan of just 3yrs compared to indoor cats, which can live to 15yrs or more. *Cars- Injuries / deaths *Cat Fight Injuries -Abcesses, very painful and costly. Also diseases such as FIV can be transmitted during cat fights. *Humans -To reduce nei...

This might take 2 goes to post as I am on my phone. The cat curfew 's (dawn to dusk) and registrations for cats haven't happened as yet. Wendy, reading from the brochure - These changes are designed to increase the likelihood of lost or impounded cats and dogs being re-united with their owners, and ...

Cats will also have curfews.

Do you remember Lift Operators in Department Stores? They used to open the lift doors for shoppers and tell you what goods were being sold on every level, then tell you to mind your step as you exited the lift. The operators were always really well dressed and the female operators always had their h...

Lady had her last vet appointment last night and has been given the :good: . :smile: New laws for cat and dog owners and breeders were introduced in Sth Aust on 1 July this year. It is now compulsory for all cats and dogs to be microchipped by 12 weeks of age , or if a new cat or dog is acquired tha...

Lady is doing really well, her personality is showing itself today and her wound looks healthy. Still some way to go but I'm very pleased with her so far. She is now on 2 Tablespoons of wet-food and a few biccies each meal (3-4 meals each day) and drinking about 90-100ml water each day.
