Last year all our efforts, thoughts, and financial support went to the Firefighters as they were fighting blazes all around Australia. This year its raining cats and dogs along the East Coast. Feast or Famine characterises Oz. As family is planning to visit - we have our fingers firmly crossed- we want to do what we can to welcome them. We want to support the return to a full and vibrant economy. So shopping in this beautiful hood is our starting point.
Walking along to the shops I notice the concern of a caring resident who has carefully marked a leaning branch along the path with a crafty warning cover.
Our little bunch of shops each offer something special and they have been roped into the Xmas party so I can spend more time enjoying my guests. Just having guests is a bit of a bonus in this year. We still have a way to go to get away properly from the consumerism of the season but supporting the survival of the Eastern Spotted Quoll is one present hubby is getting and he, in turn, is able to give away little pots of honey from our hive. 
As I walk along the neighbourhood I love catching the quirky decorations and the use of pavement trees as Xmas Trees where everyone can enjoy them.

I am aware that many parts of the world are struggling with Covid so staying safe and well must be uppermost in everyone's mind. We can say and mean it that all we want for Xmas this year is a vaccine!
