One month in The Mouse House...

15/8/2018

Did I just hear you say, 'what's a gimbal?'  Well in this instance it's a hand held stabiliser for iphone or camera.  Useful for making little films that are not jumpy or jerky.  The above filming is my first attempt at using one. 

I've already been one month in the Mighty Mouse House and I'm looking forward to reviewing it with Michel and Emma from Roamingwildcampers in a week or so. 
Together we can go over what's amazing, what's brilliant, what I love to pieces and what lets the draft in, what I kick when i'm in bed, what squeaks and what could do with some sound deadening.

Overall I am extremely pleased with my van.  I like the way it looks and the way it all works.

Today I made the chair I'm sitting on now nice and secure for traveling and it looks good too!  Doesn't it fit just perfectly?
​I tell you, the best thing ever is a cordless drill.   So very handy for so many little jobs.








​A place for everything and everything nice and secure.
Helen and Bruce came to visit and see the Mouse House.  I thik they were rather surprised that all 3 of us could be in here at the same time.  They declined a cup of tea but couldn't decline a home made biscuit.
Yes, the oven works really well.  Gas 4 is abut 180 deg on an electric oven.  That's all I really need to know isn't it?

On Friday the Mouse and I are heading over to Valla to visit some friends, pat puppies and share a meal.  Shortly after that I'll be meandering down to Oberon (via Mudgee) to visit another friend and then over to Albury and Yackandandah to visit a couple more.  Then on the 15th September the Mouse and I will drive onto the ferry for Tasmania.  How long I'll be away only time will tell.  I'm booked on the ferry to return on the 15th December.

Life is good 😊

Hey there, this is Annie, owner of the red pirate shorts, friend of feline fang & of the stealth submarine living in Connewarre, Victoria.
We met with Moira at vandykes in Moyston. I hope you can come visit to my place girt by ocean, 🌊 lake, river & runway, the black birds are gathering soft bits for their nests & winter & spring are blustering about trying to outdo eachother. See you soon! Xx a

Gosh is it really a month!! Really looking forward to your visit and investigating "mouse". I reckon the creaks and crunches will be sorted.
We look forward to more snow this weekend - seems to be every weekend at the moment and the wind is perilous for the psychy. In the meantime Bella and I are having a mexican stand off with her chewing - coffee table leg is looking less than smick. So lovely to see Fitchy's rug on your floor - much and many hugs Jenn xx
