October 2013
Winter has arrived ,
lowest16c but between 19-22c is the normal temp now, it looks like no more rain.
This is a good time for the
orchid I have they are now flowering,
But one ting I still don’t
understand such a beautiful flower and basically no smell if something of the few that smell , more
smell bad then good. Apart from the flower it self , they look pretty crappy long grey air roots and some of the flower stem are up to
1,5m long.
Two good services we have are
the garbage truck come 3 times in 2 weeks and that works OK , then we have the
scrap man that collect plastic and class bottles cans and paper and then pay
you for it. Another good guy is the mailman and he even bring parcels up to the
size of a beer can case but not that heavy all that on a moped if you are not
home he can give it to the neighbor or leave a ticket for post office
collection. The only thing I have not worked out is he schedule time or days. Maybe
the water man should be included I have 3x20 l bottles at around 30 cents (10 bath) when you buy a normal
bottle of Perrier or some up market water for 2-3$ even gasoline is cheaper.
MY CATS
CAT
The
first female that came here and inspected the house and decided this is mine.
Had 3 kittens 1 died when I was out shopping. Cause unknown.
The
Cat have moved away but come here for food every day and sometimes a nap or s
few hours nighttime sleep. Thunder and fireworks are
also
a reason to come back.

without wake him up. Love food eat the leftovers from the other cats. Weighs

BROTHER
The
tough guy that gets into fights with outside cats and is limping and scared
everywhere. Nice and affectionate at home. Mainly sleeps at home.
MAMA
The
newest and the smallest, with 3 kittens. The one that needs most attention is
playful and plays with the kittens. Offers her food if the small ones wants
more. Sleeps in the gazebo in a big cage with the kittens at night.
TUT,
WHITE and TIGER are now 3 month old very lively and playful
with
everybody, even though they the older cats get a bit enjoyed at times
with
all the paying and give them a hiss or a paw jab.
HOW
IT HAPPENED
What the Blind, Brother and Mama had in common was
they were very scare could not be touched or approached they only came here for
food
And
slowly got use to this house and me. They started to stay over a bit longer
each time. Now it works as good as having 9 children they all have their small
infights.
