Home. First cuppa tea consumed. It's raining here! Sorry, #Adelaide, I really tried to do my best with the rain! Hoping the sore throat is #allergies and #stress and not the spicy cough, because parents refuse to wear masks. Wonderdog sang me the welcome song of her people ("Aroooooo! AROOO roo roo!") which is reserved for special occasions, and I think I'm going to bed, and partner snoozing too. Thank you, MastoFam, for your love and support, you lot are brilliant. #CaityTrip
A shot I took this afternoon of Hera (the white-faced heron) crossing a small waterbridge where a lot of colorful autumn leaves have collected in the stream 🙂 Color and Monochrome versions.
The video games club at Adelaide Uni has been victim to the incompetency of the UofA's facility team AGAIN. For the second time, they've attempted to dispose of the club's CRT TVs, and we've just learned that they succeeded this time.
The club is looking to rebuild their fleet of CRTs. If you know anyone in the #Adelaide region with a TV that deserves a second lease of life, please get in touch.
New in the gallery, a photographic piece 'Veale Heron Silhouette at Sunrise'. "Hera" is a white-faced heron who visits #VealeGardens in #Adelaide each day, usually staying for a few months, flying off for a few months, then returning for a few months, and has done this for the last eight years or so :)

Morning, Toots. I’m continuing to sort through snaps I took of #FamilyHistory photos today, and here’s one for the #Adelaide folks: North Terrace, possibly early 1950s (I’m guessing from the shape of the cars.) #Histodons
11:30pm in #Melbourne and it is 29.9 degrees. It will be another hot night, but the last hot night of the summer as a mild change tomorrow morning will bring temperatures down to the mid twenties.
A heat wave in March is not unprecedented but the change in season that comes with the equinox next week should mean that we won't experience 35+ degree temperatures again until next summer. I say 'should' because in this topsy-turvy climate change world strange things happen. #environment#MelbWeather
It was 25.4 degrees when I woke up at 6am. #Adelaide has broken records during this heatwave. Their heatwave is going for 7 days - ugh.
#Melbourne airport has broken its record for hottest minimum temperature.
No. 12 trams have been cancelled between Spencer St and Victoria Gardens due to the extreme weather. Yet other trams are travelling along the same tracks. Have they been cancelled because the trams on that route are too old? #MelbWeather#environment#trams
