Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hi All

There is a thread operating on the Lived Experience Forum under Night Shift where members who are having trouble sleeping for any reason give a bit of a shout-out, to see if there is anyone else sleepless and looking for company. It's been such a great thing, I thought I would start one over here too.

I have had the odd few nights where I have woken up on and off, and my kids have been having a bit of trouble some nights too, depending on what has happened during the day.

Being a carer can be lonely too, so if you are making an after-midnight cup of something hot, and wonder who else might be doing that too, maybe have a look-in here and see if anyone else is about.

A frog chorus sounds lovely @Former-Member

We have a Frog called the Motorbike Frog here - it sounds like a motorbike changing gears.

It fools people, they think someone is hooning on a motorbike (in the night).

Love hearing about your birds @Adge. I am waking up as the sun rises and hear all sorts of bird calls outside. Am being bothered by swooping birds lately though. I guess they are just protecting their young at this time of year.

Hey @Determined, are you in line for this next lot of hail and storms that's predicted for QLD, or are you south of it?

Right in the middle @Smc

Looking at the weather map there are storms to the north and south of us but we are ok here thankfully. My brother got some hail this afternoon apparently but have not heard how he got on with his car. I managed to get our garage cleared this afternoon and get 2 cars under cover (1 of ours and 1 of mum and dads) I did want to make room in shed for my car but it has been a lazy day so it didn't get done. Tomorrow maybe. I was also going to move some shelves in the shed so I can get the boat to fit with the door closed but came the conclusion that a small modification to the shelf may be easier...

There is always something to be done @Determined

Need a coffee break?

@Adge Those frogs are well known. Amazing! Learn a new thing every day.

Hi @Former-Member Did you manipulate the image to put the frog on the bike? You so often find such wonderful images to mesh with the conversations.

Not that clever @Appleblossom

I had not heard of motorbike frogs before @Adge mentioned them.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Oh well @Former-Member You are good at spotting them then.

Yes it even has its own wiki page!
