    Miss Fluffy would look wonderful riding right next to him, don’t you think?

  • chijude replied

    Absolutely, but her high heels needed heel tips and her tutu was at the cleaners.

    I had no idea my little man on his fabulous tractor had been featured in the Adelaide Hills group!! Needless to say I am absolutely delighted and thank the generous moderators. I think it must have been the wink. And I certainly need to check in to my Groups more often.

    cute and funny - seems like Australia can use some cheer right now - dave

  • chijude

    chijude

    Absolutely could do with some cheer! It seems that many of us Ozzies have either a direct or indirect connection with the disasters … mine through my daughter who lives in Victoria, who has property in the KingLake area which was at the seat of the fire. To this point the house we believe still stands but her tennants have fled, The forest which abuts is gone … just gone!
    Thanks for the visit Dave. And it has helped to remind myself of the kind of spirit that put that tractor in the corner of the paddock.!!
