Continuing happiness

[Bribie G]

I am visited every afternoon by a mated pair of Kurrawongs. They haven't been seen in Old Bar for years, a sure sign of a cold winter as they have moved down from the hills.

Along with the Kookaburras, Spangled Drongoes, Magpies, Cukoo Shrikes, Pied Butcher Birds, and Peewees (actually Magpie Larks, referred to in Victoria as Mudlarks) I feed them on Coles $5 mince.

I often wonder what Coles $5 mince tastes like.

Would you remember?

I think thats why it would be continuing happiness, forget the **** days, forget the good days, just be.

 

[jaypes]

Gotcha

Same as Coles $10 mince. You just pay more for the privilege..

 

[Bribie G]

Must be disappointing for a cow to have a calf that turns out to be a $5 mince cow. Such hopes, initially.

Or it has less fat.

Happiness is coming home from a **** day at work to this little *****'s smiling face, it never fails to instantly make everything better.

The cheaper more fatty mince is better I reckon, not as dry. I like fat though, none of this low fat ******** for me.

Happiness for me at the moment is getting through my rehab excercises, and knowing I'm closer to the end than the start. I'm even looking forward to going back to work.

Good coffee in the morning and good beer at night. The rest is out of my control.

Kurrawong song makes my heart sing along. One of the most beautiful birds in this country, I reckon.

My wife doesn't quite get why I like them so much. Sure, she admits they sound nice, but I'm more than happy to forget where I was going and just stand and listen for a while.

First came across these birds while doing treks through the Alps, now we've got some living near our house in the 'burbs.

The morning coffee. A book in the bath. Beers with mates.

Girls in tight dresses with undies made of string,
These are a few of my favourite things.

Actually, when you take that first glass of a new batch, and it's turned out Fn() **perfect**.

I admit I also have an interest in the Currawong.

Where i haved lived previously they were very elusive and seasonal. Only to be seen in afternoon when other birds would breifly leave their nests and young for a feed. You could count on the currawong to be waiting for this moment, for this is when they dine too,on the chicks of other birds. In all those years I never got an un-obscured sight of them.

So I was very surprised about two years ago when one came and sat with me at smoko at work. I have since seen him on a number of occassions around work.
