Neighbours...everybody needs good neighbours...

I got myself some new neighbours last week and what with work and general busy-ness I hadn't yet met them.

Our first encounter was this morning with me lying under a eucalyptus plant with a camera in my hand, a spray bottle in the other and I think I may have been singing Erasure at the time (i'm not sure.) I picked myself up and managed a feeble hello before scurrying in the house a deep shad of red....Oh sh*te!

Marcus is off to see Jethro Tull later so i'll be indoors with Logan trying to avoid the neighbours, I may indulge in a spot of Spanish learning later too.

On another matter, does anyone have any suggestions on how to get a nice photo of this? It's a solusia or brain flower and looks really funky but as soon as it's in front of the lens it looks rather crap...

Jules.
