So I've been going through family photos to pull out photos of Mum for when the time comes (hopefully not any time soon!!!) and came across this series taken at Hanging Rock near Blackheath.
Looks pretty spectacular doesn't it!
Oh, but can you see that little green blob above the gap?
That's fricken ME!!!
OMFG I give myself the heebie jeebies just looking at that. I couldn't face doing the Nerve Test in the Grampians a couple of years ago. Getting old makes you just plain terrified of falling to your death. No such worries as a kid though. I can't believe the parents let us do this crap!!
I wouldn't be surprised if the thing is barricaded off now...
So I get home and the power is off. Dead. The main switch to the house is off. So turn it back on.
Checking everything out, I hear a banging. Most unusual. Eventually found it. The side gate.
So some buttplug has come along and totally ripped off the latch to the side gate, padlock and all. I couldn't find it anywhere around the yard (unless they hid it well).
My working theory is they broke in to go around the back, saw the alarm in the garage, turned off the power, found the alarm was still on (it has backup batteries) and decided not to bother. Because there was no evidence of any forced entry anywhere.
Makes me a bit scared to leave the house :(
This morning I walked through a big cobweb as I was walking outside. It was completely and utterly icky :(:(:(
At work I wanted to get two things done at the very least. I got one done relatively quickly, but the other took the entire day to get done, due to multiple distractions.
Tonight we went to go for a walk, only to discover an incoming thunderstorm. We walked 800m, cutting the walk short and getting home just before it started raining.
