so he’ll be “bag-trained” by the time he gets to Europe? LOL!

Oh it does look all green and fresh in the photos…not sure what sour-sobs are but I’ve yet to see anyone mention them without cursing in the same sentence…

Where does one start? Soursobs along with Salvation Jane are the two most destructive weeds in SA, but two of the prettiest.

Wonder if Percy is pink still or a tad on the blue side with no air in the postal bag????

flying pigs can survive a long time in low oxygen atmospheres.

Hmm. Got a good run on the compost bays.
Posts up, top rail on. Guttering in place. Gotta get some roofing iron now. Might as well make it a fortress right!

Also made another bird breeding thingy in a silky oak. These mongrel rosellas will have too many homes to decide on.
Won’t appreciate it either i’ll bet. That’s OK. I’ll eat ‘em if we get too many.

Saw the oxygen theif bloke down the road picking up the duckshyte this morning too. Had his Mrs helping. Poor woman.
Wonder what she did wrong to deserve that sort of life.

My old brown dog is supposed to have carked it about a month ago according to the doc. Shows what they know. He’ll probably outlive me. Still waiting on the message from Queen Lizzy. She’s slippin in her 1 ton congrats. He made it there weeks ago.

ANyway, best go make sure the Mrs is busy.

Who put that there? What’s that got to do with Percy? Who the hell is Percy anyway?

If you do get a whale, make some whale bacon…. good stuff it is, and will wrap nicely around those lean Rosellas of yours.

and it’s official, this thread is hijacked!

Hello! you might be thinking of Bruge. Gent/Ghent/Gand is very similar but with less tourists, so still relatively unspoiled.

hehe.. the picture of Percy with his cousins is great :)

I’m so jealous though!! We lookedi n to visiting River Cottage HQ and it seemed from the website as if you could only go if you went to a course/dinner and they cost hundreds. D’oh! Should have investigated further :(

Percy’s cousins are fat bastards!

I am hoping to see Percy at Lord’s over the next few days!

that is true, we went for lunch. They don’t give you the address until you have paid up. I guess otherwise they would be inundated with sightseers which would spoil the experience for paying customers. The lunch was great though. HQ is more of a demonstration garden than a farm though, but we still thought it worth it.

sounds cool, me thinks that maybe it is the reason the Hervey’s Range Tea House has $50.00 coffees available?

Ahh, OK. In that case we probably would have just stuck to visiting River Cottage Canteen, which we loved in any case :)

Nice to see your photos though :)

http://postcardsfrompercy.blogspot.com/2009/08/safe-in-salisbury.html

Poor Percy! This globe trotting can be a bit risky. People must be realising how valuable he is to try and kidnap him. I’d come up with the ransom if I had to. LOL. Stay one trotter ahead of them Perc.
