Ducks, Elvis & Fireworks (not related)

Summer has just about arrived – and one morning Mark was eating breakfast outside the front door unaware that his every move was being watched.

Oh yes, watched. He went off to get his bag before leaving the house – and then I heard a shout (and a crash). As soon as he had left a duck had made a break for our kitchen through the open door.

It got into a flap, hit the window, poo’d on the floor and then ran outside…

It then lurked outside – staking out the house for a further 30 mins.

We’re planning on leaving a trail of breadcrumbs right into the oven….

Then on Friday evening it was Dom & Vals flat warming. They moved into 39 Fendalton about a month ago but have finally had the house warming. It was Elvis themed. Also found out that the whole duck thing was most likely because they have started feeding them in their kitchen! Amazing how quickly behavior can be learned.

I went out shopping at the second hand stores and managed to pick up a 1/2 decent outfit. Even wore it in work (it was casual Friday). I think 1/2 the people there thought I was being serious. Oh dear.. my dress sense really must be awful if that’s the case.

Sat and Sun – got some mountain biking done and a couple of barbecues.. finally off to the beach to watch the fireworks (which were excellent). They don’t really celebrate Halloween so much over here – it’s all Guy Fawkes (or mostly about that)
