Okay, what have I forgotten?
Thank you for the silly spider scandalbaby! And Happy Halloween to US friends (and anyone else who celebrates!)

Almost everything done in readiness to leave tomorrow ... except the actual packing.
It isn't as bad as it sounds. I have everything set out, ready to be packed - we just don't bring the suitcase in until the last moment, sparing the dogs (and ourselves!) all the anxiousness the sight of a suitcase tends to provoke.
But the dogs will be at least a little happy with arrangements; Pip, one of their favourite people is going to house-sit. Or puppy-sit. Poor old Lady Muck is really too old and confused for a kennel, especially since it's been years since she's been to one.

Our first iris bloomed today - a yellow one. I was wondering if it would ever show its petals! And the jacaranda is showing a few little flowers, too.

Okay, I'm going to answer some comments, reply to an email, then I think I'm set ... see you next week!
