Lovely weather

See what going back to work does to me?? It's been so long since I posted!

Tregear has been very quiet at my end, the only thing I noticed was a boy on a dirt bike being seen by ambulance people in the reserve across the road a couple of weeks ago. I didn't see what happened, but he didn't have a helmet on of course. Of course it's soooooo much safer riding a motorbike in the reserve than on the road that, of course, no one needs helmets over there.

I'm loving this cool change. It was actually a touch chilly in the back yard this morning.

Happy Survival Day

A warm day today. Warm enough to put the air con on when the sun hit the loungeroom in the arvo.

And to those who are into such things: Happy Australia Day, or Happy Survival Day.

Now. The day before yesterday, after I'd done my last post, I was told by someone who saw as drove up, that there were about 7 police at a house just down the road. There you go, something happened.

And those dirt bikes and the motorised pushbikes have been around and not just in the reserve. Although the ones in the reserve haven't had children on them lately, the ones on the roads are so much louder!

Hot and dirt bikes

For the first time in a week it's hot. It's 36 deg C on my front porch. I actually have the air con on. On the good side all the washing is done and dry and the whole suburb no longer smells mouldy!

Yesterday there were people playing with a dirt bike in the reserve - they were having a ball, screeching and squealing, but you'd have to wonder what would happen if the adult, who was carrying 2 children at the same time, hit a rock. Or a hole. Not like there aren't any over there. Could have ended up with people screeching and screaming instead...

Noise?

It was 20 deg C at about 6.40 this morning. There's a light breeze and just a few clouds.

I did hear some loud music and partying down the road last night. About 8pm. I don't know how long it went for and if they ended up annoying their neighbors. I couldn't hear it when I came inside.

I also heard a dirt bike in the reserve yesterday. It wasn't so close that the noise was a problem. When I walk over there I've never had a dirt biker hassle me. When they see me coming they usually take alternate paths to avoid me. Horribly polite. I do worry about them though, I've heard of 3 over the years who have died over there. They are often unlicensed and often act a bit stupid.
