We had some beautiful rainbow lorrikeets visit us this morning. Our two budgies, Rogue and Rio, were only too happy to chat with them through the flyscreen.

The Handmaid’s Tale is an excellent show but who on Earth would buy a calendar that’s based the show?
I just finished seeing Toto live in Sydney and it was one of the most excessive, hilarious and brilliant concerts that I’ve ever seen. It was like being transported back in time inside a radioactive keyboard demo track.

Paco and Coco had a lot of fun at the park today. They could seriously eat grass forever.

Flying back to Wollongong
My wife Natasha took this photo of Coco and Paco getting into the Christmas spirit.
This is certainly a safer way to undo than shaking your device… pulianas.com
I call it: Coffee Cup Eclipse.
