The pool is down to just under 25 degrees in the mornings so my swims are usually over in a few minutes! It is extremely refreshing now though!
After our return from Melbourne at Christmas time I noticed a new 'weed' in the front lawn. The weed is called "Mullumbimby Couch". There is quite a lot of it all over the estate right now. I took a 'sample' with me to Bunnings on Saturday where it was identified and I was directed to the appropriate spray ($12) to deal with it. I checked out the instructions and saw it wasn't suitable for Queensland Blue Couch lawns. I have just that lawn!There was another bottle of stuff there which wouldn't harm Queensland Blue Couch lawns at a mere $32 per bottle! I was then told the cheaper version may knock the lawn I have around a little but won't kill it. I spot sprayed with the $12 product on Saturday afternoon.
This morning I saw that the areas I had spot sprayed the lawn were browning off a little. I hope the weed is feeling a bit sick too!
My PC "Power Off" problem continues. I began to keep count yesterday and right now out of 8 shutdowns, the PC has failed to "Power Off" on 3 occasions. I can live with that. As long as it isn't a problem which will worsen things should be OK.
I had a call from a Computer Club member saying her laptop had "jammed" and how could she fix it. I explained how to press and hold the power button which she did and she restarted it.The laptop then 'jammed' again. So we went through a few things until she discovered the 'pad' was working and she could move the cursor around the screen that way. We had a few problems discovering if the mouse was USB powered or was it wireless.
It is all fixed now, the mouse battery had gone flat!
