It allowed me to get really close and take a lot of photos. Eventually I must have got too close as it discovered it had wings and flew off. This surprised me so much that [...] Sat, 19 Jul 2008 07:52:51 GMTTop 10 Sources - Expatriate Bloggershttp://www.toptensources.com/post/Expatriate-Bloggers/anglosaxy.blogspot.com/kiss-me-budgie/got-a-surprise-fly-by-visit-from-a-neighbourhood-bhttp://www.toptensources.com/post/Expatriate-Bloggers/anglosaxy.blogspot.com/kiss-me-budgie/got-a-surprise-fly-by-visit-from-a-neighbourhood-bGot a surprise fly-by visit from a neighbourhood budgie earlier today.

Hubby and I had a huge fight last weekend - did not talk for a couple of days.  Resolved it now (all stemming from our original problems).  Had our 14th wedding anniversary on Tuesday - nothing much that day but we did go [...]Fri, 18 Jul 2008 12:16:30 GMTTop 10 Sources - Expatriate Bloggershttp://www.toptensources.com/post/Expatriate-Bloggers/www.goodairs.com/cobos-funnies/not-surprisingly-after-last-nights-marathon-argehttp://www.toptensources.com/post/Expatriate-Bloggers/www.goodairs.com/cobos-funnies/not-surprisingly-after-last-nights-marathon-argeNot surprisingly, after last night's marathon Argentine Senate session and rejection of the Presidenta's tax plan by a tie-splitting vote against her by her Vice President Julio Cobos (just imagine Cheney doing that to Bush), today's blogs were filled with plenty a comic/sarcastic/cutting image of Cobos.

After two years of moaning, whining Yemenite tenants, we're renting our cute little pad in Tel Aviv. All because of that pesky dollar business, which has meant a serious reduction in our shekel rental income (why the fuck is this country still so tied to the dollar?). The new contract is in shekels of...Tue, 15 Jul 2008 05:41:47 GMTTop 10 Sources - Expatriate Bloggershttp://www.toptensources.com/post/Expatriate-Bloggers/anglosaxy.blogspot.com/a-year-ago-today.../...i-handed-in-my-keys-and-finally-bid-farewell-tohttp://www.toptensources.com/post/Expatriate-Bloggers/anglosaxy.blogspot.com/a-year-ago-today.../...i-handed-in-my-keys-and-finally-bid-farewell-to...I handed in my keys and finally bid farewell to Corridor Land.
