It must be an escaped pet as it is not the usual dull grey of the wild feral beasts. A bit worried it was akin to the Monty Python rabbit and was about to rip out our jugulars but this turned out not to be the case. So we dubbed it Alejandro(pronounced al a kkhhhaaan dro).   Alejandro!    We were also paid a...

SPRING! Well, our school break draws to a close today. We didn't really do much other than relax. We had one of the highest tides we have seen here. Went to Aunty Jo's for the long weekend to watch all the different footy finals. Go Manly! Pete and Boris donned Wallabies Jerseys for the World Cup game (not a final).                                                      Criquette did not really want to be a Wig                                                     ...
