Well it still rains and the wind blows. Not very "'Stralian" I must say. So even though it's 19 degrees it's most unpleasant. The Wivenhoe Dam, which was almost dry 3 years ago, is over flowing and I think we'll have mouldy feet before long!
The mulberries need some sunshine to sweeten them. There have been enough to pick for a couple of deserts though.
I have just finished reading "The Red Queen" by Phillipa Gregory. It connects with her last book, "The White Queen" so continuing the story behind the Wars of the Roses. What a dreadful woman! One review suggests that she was the 'Mother-in-La law from Hell!! " I quite agree. It is written in the first person and she is the most jealous and manipulative woman possible. It's a good read and helps to put the murder of the 2 princes in the Tower of London into historical perspective.
