I have a special love for them... got to see some wild ones in Scotland when I went there on a trip. I would love to help them like that, but it would be hard to see them in distress. Your yard looks lovely and what cute dogs! I know so little of Australia, but it sounds really nice. I'm glad for the internet so I have the chance to meet nice people like you that I wouldn't get to otherwise. Oh, I've been to Mallig once... was wierd, the whole town shut down for a funeral...some sailors from the town perished at sea... I never heard anyone else ever mention it before!

Your friend must have an awesome cell phone to catch those incredible storm photos. Rumor has it that it IS winter here in the northern hemi, but I've seen no proof of it.
