It's a hot day

Down at Vicki's today to look after Caitlyn with Bella & Sarah coming in the afternoon. Had Bella & Sarah on Monday & Tuesday but not Zoe & Riley 'cause their dad is on holidays already. They go to Melbourne with the 4 of them early Saturday morning. Two weeks and I'll go to their place to look after the dog. Our dinner with 2 neighbouring couples was a great success and they all enjoyed it. Better than just waving and saying hello. We had pork ,chicken and gin terrine for entree,steak,rissoles,fish and chicken sausages barbecued with sauces and green garden salad and spinach,asparaghus and egg salad. For desert we had 3 tastings of honeycomb cheesecake,apple syllabub and Jo's icecream slice. we were all full but was nice. Did not take any photos. Today is to be 39 degrees again so not very nice and it feels like it might be hotter than that. Sounds like Japanese whaling and Greenpeace anti whaling ships (the Steve Irwin)are really creating incidents with whalers hanging on to 2 Greenpeace guys. Not nice either. Really japan needs to stop the whaling to comply with the rest of the world. The rate our large creatures are disappearing is a worry. Don't say we kill our kangaroos. That is done to keep the numbers at a reasonable level,they are certainly not endangered at this stage.Just take a look at the paddocks near Byford and some of the Golfcourses like Melville (right in the city of Melville) and Preston Beach.
