Well, it’s almost November (and the end of the year). Where did the year go?? 😱 Since my previous garden post, the snow peas have gone crazy… And the broccoli have sort of mostly bolted. There’s still some edible stalks left, but the weather’s been so unstable (typical) that it’s […]
Yesterday was my first day back at work since our tearoom became a Tier 1/2 exposure site and people had to isolate at home. I missed it all because I was fortunately on leave. We’re now wearing N95/P2 masks while at work, and bloody hell- mad respect for all the […]
Well- we’re still in lockdown, and I’m still on annual leave. 🥳 Which means it’s time to do some culinary experimentation!! And do other hobby activities, like editing that story I was writing back in June last year… or going for a walk… And enjoying the earth rumble beneath me- […]
I work in Melbourne (for the most part), as an essential worker- in the healthcare/ medical science field. Given I’ve currently returned to my regional Victorian hometown, I drive my car to and from on the days that I work. It’s a bit of a drive, sure, but it’s relatively […]
Hey there newbie. Yes you, with all your nerves, excitement, and enthusiasm. Welcome to the lab. Maybe you’ve already been introduced to everyone, but lets face it- you’ve already forgotten whose name was whose. So long as you still remember your supervisor’s name, that’s the main thing. Don’t worry- you’ll […]
Why hello there 🦎 We actually got some warm weather for the first week of September/spring, so we got to see some wee lizards poking their heads out from the garden beds. Unfortunately we’ll be back to cold, wet and somewhat miserable (I say somewhat, because I actually like rain) […]
Wow that previous camping post has gone gangbusters! 😳 Apparently there are some avid campers out there. With that in mind, I thought I’d do a short post on all the gear we usually take, because y’all know I love inventory lists. 😂 No joke I do write a handwritten […]
If you’ve been reading this blog for a while, you’ll know that my partner and I enjoy our winter camping trips. Given we were in lockdown in July, we didn’t get to head out into the (semi) wilderness then, but we managed to book a weekend away for August… namely, […]
It’s National Science Week here in Australia, so I thought I’d do a little post to commemorate this. I’ve written a lot about my background as a scientist (please see the last little index post I did for more details and in-depth posts), so I’ll boil this little nugget down […]
Apparently my last update to the tank was when I set up the new, larger tank. 😳 Things have progressed significantly since then. So, firstly, all original fish are in the new tank (Hoover, and the trio of Danios). In addition to those guys, we also have three new Leopard […]
