Celestequest: December 2010

http://celestequest.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html

Wednesday, December 29, 2010. Kalara took advantage of two things last night, the downpour after the thunderstorm and the fact that it was too warm to rug the pony trio. Using her decisive horse sense (horses are only sensible when they decide to be) she knew today would be clear and sunny so she attempted a glare-reducing mudpack just like Bear Grylls'. Monday, December 27, 2010. Turning up the heat. More of the same is forecast for tomorrow, Total Fire Bans, heat, mozzies and sun. The freezer has b...

Celestequest: Thistle do

http://celestequest.blogspot.com/2012/10/thistle-do.html

Wednesday, October 3, 2012. Yesterday dawned cool and clear and turned into a warm and sunny day. After a week of sunny days. This information is specifically for our northern readers facing the autumn approaching. We've got the sun, thanks very much, we'll lend it to you occasionally and send it back next year. Even so, they grow higher than a horse. Literally. Places we like to visit. Green Garden in the Driest State. Life on a Nova Scotia Island. Shetland Sheep in the US. Tree at ninety degrees.

Celestequest: Eggstreme living

http://celestequest.blogspot.com/2012/10/eggstreme-living.html

Monday, October 1, 2012. I am hoping today is actually the Queen's Birthday Holiday otherwise I'm missing the first day back to uni after the spring mid-term break, which zoomed by like an escaped beagle. In an effort to just get on with it as it's 5 weeks until exams (thunder roll, psycho music). Today's study: the wonders of the mouth, dentition and differences between carnivores, ruminants and equines, why horses need dentists but don't actually like them. Places we like to visit.

Celestequest: September 2012

http://celestequest.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html

Sunday, September 30, 2012. The things they teach you in vet school 2. The ungulates, being those animals with hoofs on the menus of those animals with claws, have adapted in many specialist ways to get away really fast from said animals with claws. This is because they cannot take other measures, such as flying or climbing trees.". Although not for lack of trying:. Saturday, September 29, 2012. Spot the kangaroo in this picture. Find it, I mean, not that its name is Spot. Friday, September 28, 2012.

Craft Alley Designs: May 2010

Sunday, May 30, 2010. The Name the Nappy competition. It's been a long wait, but I've decided on the winner of the "Name the Snappi Nappy" competition that I had running on the website throughout the last GDUNH, back in March. The winner is Kristy with her AWESOME suggestion of calling the reversible, brightly coloured newborn nappy a "turnover" and naming each colour a particular flavour. I love the idea you came up with! Links to this post. Saturday, May 22, 2010. The Bendigo Craftalive Fair. The Bendi...

Celestequest: Bunny boarder

http://celestequest.blogspot.com/2012/10/bunny-boarder.html

Thursday, October 4, 2012. While our place could most politely be described as "lived in" and a far cry from his former two-story architect designed outdoor residence and pristine suburban home where he is the sole animal occupant, he quickly adapted his cleaning regime and stopped us having to say "Here's your rabbit back, sorry about the dirt! Today's study revision: The secret microbial world of ruminants, their several secret chambers of grass processing and why they shouldn't eat too many lollies.

Celestequest: November 2010

http://celestequest.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html

Friday, November 5, 2010. Thursday, November 4, 2010. A hive of activity. We briefly checked on the progress or otherwise of the new bee hives in the hay loft today. It was a flying visit. heh. to make sure they had taken to their new boxes. We found one pile of them mourning for their old box and still lumped where it used to be. Or bee. Wednesday, November 3, 2010. Being nearly blind, however, means Georgie sometimes gets disoriented and stares hopefully at the wall instead. And if there's movement!

Celestequest: Cold competition

http://celestequest.blogspot.com/2012/10/cold-competition.html

Tuesday, October 2, 2012. We usually get cold winters and this area is famous for its frosts making cherry and apple growing one of the region's specialties. Another friend who had just moved to the Hills (capital H. We treat our hills with Respect) Region was amazed and kept taking photos of the temperature at his place, single figures! 3, 1 and 2 degrees C! Curiously, we didn't see any more photos from newbie Hills dweller about temperature after that. Places we like to visit. Shetland Sheep in the US.

Celestequest: April 2010

http://celestequest.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html

Friday, April 30, 2010. Sirius is convalescing after his ordeal this morning, athough a little groggily. Dr Vet Snr said he would start to wake up about half an hour after his operation and right on time his eyes started to open. He thought about moving and twitched his legs experimentally but couldn't actually do anything for another half an hour more. Meanwhile Orion paced about the yard looking for his friend in a worried-alpaca manner. We let them get a visual for reassurance but as Ori was so concer...

Celestequest: October 2012

http://celestequest.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html

Sunday, October 14, 2012. The interwebs are tangled and our reception and transmission has become reeeeaaaallly. slooooooooww. May or may not have had something to do with the world wide web being swept up by the houseproud broom of the gods and our sole local telecommunications tower being fritzed. Study revision: the charming, poetic and highly detailed descriptions of saliva, it's production, content and variability. Think I'll read about that over lunch. Sunday, October 7, 2012. Tree at ninety degrees.
