You’re probably right 
clearing out the old to make way for the new.
in hindsight I can see why the christian college didn’t like me much. The feeling was mutual.
 

Happy Birthday, Pittwitch!     

Thank you so much!  Great day surrounded by my family!

Alrighty then… Iceland is 103.000 km2  total     And we’re definitely not doing that well  Population is somewhere around the 350 000 mark now, I think. But I hope you guys keep doing that well, and that we’ll catch up eventually

Yes, the government up here has also decided to not use the AstraZeneca vaccine for the under 50 crowd, because of those blood clot cases. But as far as I know they’re pretty much on schedule with the vaccine plans, so my parents (mum has underlying conditions, and dad’s turning 69 this year) should be up this month, and then hopefully I’ll be getting mine near the end of the month, start of May. And we’ve got decent control of the pandemic up here as well, although we had a fourth wave pick up just around Christmas, which is thankfully back under control. 
Let’s hope you guys stay on track with keeping Covid under control (knock on wood) and that you’ll get the jab soon. And I can only imagine how much stress it lifts for you that your mum is getting her jabs, and therefore getting some level of protection

That’s awesome. Congrats to mum for getting her first jab. Hope you don’t have to wait very long for yours, Melrick.

lol I read about the spiders.  I’m not bothered by spiders, so that doesn’t worry me.  Well, as long as the deadly ones stay outside.
Today was a day of sunshine!  Actually sunshine!  Man that feels good.  Some areas got 1 metre of rain in a 7 day period, which is about 3.3 feet.

omg a plague of spiders and mice! remind me never to visit austraila! but be safe Melrick! guess i wont complain about the weather either

And my friends in NSW posted on FB yesterday, that there’s now also a plague of spiders running away from the flooding…  So, good luck with that, Melrick!

I’m refusing to read about the Plague of Mice, sorry. I don’t like mice in big quantities… one mouse, two mouse, that’s fine… more than that, and I start to worry about what they’re up to. 

Fire & Ice?

Ah yes, the plague of mice, I forgot about them. lol  Not the first time we’ve had massive plagues of mice (check out youtube for older videos if you like lol) and this won’t be the last.  It seems to be something that happens every few years, with the right conditions.  A locust plague is probably next, and then the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse can finally show up.

I’m just glad your parents are okay. If my parents did that it’d be
Just because that’s how luck treats my family.

I think I might stop grumbling about the weather here for a bit…   Well, unless it snows in April, in which case I reserve the right to grumble without restraint.
But mice… :shudders:  I get maybe a dozen at the lake house every winter, and I think that’s awful. What you’re getting is apocalyptic! 

I saw this and thought it couldn’t get worse -then I read about the Plague of Mice – https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2021/mar/19/you-cant-escape-the-smell-mouse-plague-grows-to-biblical-proportions-across-eastern-australia
Damn :(

Be safe, Melrick.
