Only this morning I read an article in The Age about home renovation weblogs, and how they’re taking the world by storm. I fail to see how repetitive monologues about a single topic could engage any readers for long, but apparently they’re huge nowdays. In saying that, I recognise that I AM IN FACT RUNNING A RENOVATION BLOG BY STEALTH, as last month there was some stuff on fixing a front fence, and over the past few years there are shots of me painting, gardening, constructing and generally looking useful. I’m vaguely sorry about it, but I do this (the writing) mainly for myself, so I can look back oneday and gloat or be proud or something. Without further ado, here are the results of today’s efforts. See December 5th or 28th for comparison. 
The last time these hounds will ever be inside this enclosure. Now for a whole lot more dirt to add.
