The Weak...
No politics, no tragedies... just a quick catch-up
It's been a bit quiet 'round WaitingManor this week, as L-SP, Bella & I come to terms with a 25% reduction in residents. Bella is extra clingy, extra vocal & even accepting affection from L-SP... not something she's done much in the past - she even runs away from me sometimes & I'm the one who feeds her!! We've thought about getting another cat for her & if... I mean if* we do, it will most likely be a kitten, as another adult cat would more likely be seen as a competitor than a companion, whereas a younger cat may not upset the pecking/scratching order
*I mean 'when' - we're a pair of softies who can't say no to any animal, really...
A week & a bit after the finale of Game Of Thrones, Winter has come to Sydney, with a cold front blasting up from Antarctica & into the coastal areas of New South Wales. Harbour ferries have been cancelled, the airport is frantically re-scheduling flights, trees are falling, traffic is either crashing or breaking down everywhere. Sounds like a good time to leave town & head inland... which we're most likely doing tomorrow, Bella permitting...
We recently played tour & Restaurant Guides to some friends visiting from the USA. They were staying at one of the better Hotels in the Rocks area of Sydney &, between shopping & restaurants, we showed them a few sights - notably Taronga Zoo, lit up for the annual Vivid Festival
And some of the more quirky street art around...
