Lots of the drought affected areas of Australia seem to have had some rain over the last week, unfortunately the Wudinna area in SA where my daughter and son in-law farm has at this stage missed out.
Things there will be very serious if they don’t get some decent rain very soon.
My duties here in Adelaide have eased a little as Stacey’s confidence has improved, she is once more able to contact and face friends, as would be expected the friends who are worthwhile are very supportive.
I find that I am in frequent conflict with my spelling and grammar checker, some of this is due to it’s US based English, some is due to my spelling ability, which I find is quite poor now that “big brother” is checking it, and some is because “IT” doesn’t like the way I construct some sentences.
To even up the conflict somewhat I have decided to pick out some favourite words to play around with, such as;
DEFAULT, it is de-fault of my spelling and grammar checker that I have errors.
“Mouse-potato”, the computer age equivilant of the Couch-potato.
“Skinny Dipping”, becomes Chunky Dunking for most of us.
A woman marries a man thinking he will change, and he doesn’t.
