Skippy and Mates

MoonHowler17 @MoonHowler17 (101) • Ballina, Australia 4 Dec 15

Generally animals just go about their business around me. They seem to know I am an animal lover and no threat but occasionally there is a rogue... My parents took me to a wildlife animal park where you can walk amongst the emus...

The Quiet Life

MoonHowler17 @MoonHowler17 (101) • Ballina, Australia 4 Dec 15

I really do aim for a quiet life – surrounded by nature and no other humans – which is why I rent a farm house on a huge cattle property with no neighbours and a river on 2 sides, just me and my dog. Even friends with an address...

Time travel by music

MoonHowler17 @MoonHowler17 (101) • Ballina, Australia 29 Nov 15

A music album – Tracy Chapman’s self-titled album in fact – just threw me back to 1988, when I was 27. It was a great year in so many ways, largely due to the gorgeous Mark. We met at our local pub in my lunch hour and I never...

Comedian

MoonHowler17 @MoonHowler17 (101) • Ballina, Australia 9 Oct 15

When I think about who would tell the funniest jokes, I first think – the life and soul of the party – you know – that dude we all know – the one who makes a party (or a ‘gathering' my 19 year old tells me – it’s NOT a party) just...

Best of both worlds

MoonHowler17 @MoonHowler17 (101) • Ballina, Australia 22 Sep 15

I am very fortunate to live in a subtropical part of Australia. Where I live is coastal and surrounded by beautiful beaches. While some get very crowded in tourist seasons, others are tucked away, hidden behind sugar cane farms...

Kitchen gadgets

MoonHowler17 @MoonHowler17 (101) • Ballina, Australia 20 Sep 15

What are your favourite kitchen appliances or gadgets and why? Of small gadgets, my favourites are garlic crusher, just for the simplicity and lack of mess and metal tea bag so I can have a "proper" tasting cup of tea with loose...

Madam Carrot

MoonHowler17 @MoonHowler17 (101) • Ballina, Australia 19 Sep 15

My natural hair colour is brunette with red lights. As grey started to appear at a relatively early age, I took to dying it and have always loved the red tones. As anyone who has dyed their hair knows, the shades on the box vary...

Strange habits

MoonHowler17 @MoonHowler17 (101) • Ballina, Australia 19 Sep 15

My lovable and sometimes crazy collie dog, Fergus is my best friend. In fact, I have my Facebook status set to show I am in a relationship with him. I've had several dogs and other pets in the past but never one with...

Don't call me "Madam"

MoonHowler17 @MoonHowler17 (101) • Ballina, Australia 18 Sep 15

Yes, I am over 50. So what? I don't FEEL old. It really sticks in my craw when people who serve me call me "Madam". It is a term I never use since I don't go into brothels. I suppose younger folk see it as a term of respect....
