- rice(cooked by jason)
- stir fry beef
- stir fry chicken
- onion omelette
then upon discovering we needed to get some gardening stuff, we headed out to get them. Bunnings is a warehouse-style mall. they sell all sorts of tools, hardware, and anything related to construction, lighting and gardening. quite a huge area too. their aisles run for 100m or so, at least 2-3 storeys tall with 4-5 shelves of items. ok enough description. basically they're housed in a warehouse so they have plenty of space. and this is what we've got...
- rat poison blocks for ratbert
- ant killing bait for antbert
- gardening gloves for jasonbert
- nylon string for grasstrimmer-bert
- threading seal tape for watertap-bert
- bucket for grass-mulch-bert
well that was pretty much it. but i suppose 90% of the people won't understand what's the deal with -bert up there. hehe... ratbert is a character with Dilbert comics.
and comes the main event. yes, once again we have brought you to (without any pictorials) the event arena. for today, we will be tackling new frontiers. what the heck i'm talking about? aiya cut grass lah... enough of chim english. so i bought the nylon and wound it to the grass trimmer. then jason found the container that goes with the lawnmower. yay! no more getting our feet and footwear buried in the grass mulch coming out the lawnmower... XD
so i did the mowing on the front lawn, in full view of all the neighbors, cars going past, and the passengers of the bus that passes by the bus stop right in front of our house. jason then used the grass trimmer to take care of the edges, i mow the driveway, he trim. and that it with the grass. for now.
we next targetted the plants in the garden that has since grown out of hand. armed with a shear each, we proceeded to cutting away weeds, and protruding plants. yes, we cruelly cut off flowering branches too. cos they were sticking out. and we also had to cut a path thru to the gas meter(heating), and the water meter and tap. quite a pile of plant protrusions we'd gathered! oh and then i 顺便 fix the leaky tap. oh yah and then there was a water hole thingy for duno wad. it seemed like it had a lot of creatures inside. i took a bottle of oil from the fridge we didn't use, and i poured it down there. haha... i hate mozzies breeding. hope this reduces the amount!
alright i noe this is gettin boring but i wana continue a while longer...
so we were done with the front yard. i adamantly wanted to thrash the rear end too! so we took all our barang-barang and went behind to our backyard. there was still a portion of the backyard with frigging tall grass. and i wanted to cut them down to size. leaving the lawnmower behind, i attempted to tame the grassy patch wielding the grass trimmer. sadly i could only shorten the grass. they were too thick! i guess we'll try again next week. the bin is almost full!!! muahaha... satisfied with the path of destruction i left behind, we pulled back to our house as the mozzies sent their pilots to attack us for destroying their hideout. i think i killed 2. oh anyway while i was whipping the grass with the trimmer, jason was cutting the whipped portions with the shear, and raking it into a heap. i think i was testing his patience by hanging around that area for too long and feeding the mozzies.
finally, i took a well deserved shower(erm yes still cold, but considering we sweat so much it felt a bit warm anyway) while jason took a late afternoon jog. ahh... finally comfy and clean. rid of the grassy bits on my legs too.
so we mull around a while, and headed out to get dinner. yes i spared jason tonight. dinner was from the nearby chinese take-away restaurant. and the menu was:
- fried rice
- wanton in soup with ham slices
- lemon chicken(deep fried, yuk)
- spring rolls
- prawn crackers
all that for 2 of us at a price of A$19.50! ok la i guess... comes with plastic containers somemore. and it was pretty filling.
