Upside down

First we had exploding watermelons in China http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-pacific-13422776 Now we have poison cucumbers in Spain http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-13587182  Whatever next? We can now actually use fruit as Weapons of Mass Destruction. Bet you Bush Jr. never even thought of that.

And the weather here has gone haywire. Hot with 33 degrees during the day, but yesterday morning at 6am and 8am, it started to rain! Utterly unbelievable at this time of the year!

And our female canaries that laid broods of eggs last year, have all started singing like males this week. Our cook is getting spooked by this.

Killer tornadoes in America, Typhoon in Philippines and Japan .... the world is turning upside down. "Things fall apart, the centre cannot hold; mere anarchy is loosed upon the world" (W.B. Yeats, The 2nd Coming)
