Cubby workers

My Dad and I have finally started to build the cubby house that was meant to be my fourth birthday present.


We've got the frame work and the rails ready and most of the old flooring up and we're almost ready to make the first of the walls and roof frame.


It's going to have a single room with a door and a gate on the veranda, and most importantly of all it will have a perch for a very special little girl- Emerald.

Our Rowdy Rainbow Birds

This is a great poem about Rainbow lorikeets that I got from a website called Inkless Tales

Our Rowdy Rainbow Birds

Down Under, in Australia,
The lorikeets are loud.
They're brilliant birds
Quite colourful --
But what a squawking sound!

The children love them,
Just the same,
(After all --
These birds aren't tame.)

Lovely to look at,
Harder to hear,
So use your eyes
And cover your ears
When you visit Down Under
And wonder --

Is that a lorikeet you hear?
