Melbourne

Bricks moved successfully - the area for the new garden bed is now clear and I have a raised brick edging for a new bed for a couple of citrus trees. Tomorrow I will put down a layer of clay, then wood, then mulch at the bottom of the new bed. Then I need to put together the sides and bamboo framework for the raised beds and wait for a patch of clear weather to order the soil fill.

My poor old garden cart's tyres have given in, and the wheelbarrow is so rusted it is threatening to collapse at any moment, so I think it's time to retire those and look at getting a new cart.

Laying in bed watching the Ryder Cup on my tablet. This event is literally the only golf I ever watch, I just enjoy the format and the whole Europe vs USA teams element. Go Euro!

Do we need a Vegas sphere in Melbourne?

Time for song No. 2…

(I just noticed on Mlem on the iPad that you have to hit Option and Enter to get the next line. Thank goodness because that was driving me completely batty.)

Late last night I snuck in a song:

No. 1. Enter Sandman - Metallica

No. 2. Red Right Hand - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

I hope the markup is right!

Took me awhile to get going today but I got some sunshine, did some adulting/domestic’ing. I even cooked dinner (go me!). Work tomorrow, but rumour is it’s quiet so hopefully it’s a chill sort of a day.

Still obsessed with Alone and up to S6. I know it’s old news, but that Larry character. Man, deep, unresolved issues there.

Hope everyone is having a good evening!

An interesting situation: back in 2017 I went overseas with the intention of staying there (I'm a UK dual-citizen) and when I did, I unenrolled from the Australian Electoral Commission using their "unenroll me, I'm permanently leaving" form.

Later that year I came back deciding that I didn't want to do that, but I never re-enrolled and subsequently haven't voted in any election since without any sort of consequence and honestly, for me I kind of like this situation. I can't find any information anywhere about a penalty for doing this, only information about if you've never enrolled before. The penalty for not voting is for just that, enrolled citizens not voting. Not for being unenrolled.

Anybody know anyone else in a similar boat?

Seasol spray and some supermarket parsley acquired.

I might divide it to plant in a row spreading along the rectangular pot rather than leaving it in one tightly packed clump. Fingers crossed it doesn’t traumatise the roots too badly

Edit: Wait. This is meant to be sprayed on the leaves so I don’t want to use it. The leaves are the edible part and also Melbcat might lick it off the leaves

Edit 2: Apparently you’re not supposed to use in on leaves that will be in direct sunlight as it can make them burn. I take pains to put them in direct sunlight as they need it
