I am sorry we haven’t been regular with our postings since I got back from India, we have been reorganising our office, and my usual secretary is in Melbourne, and I am down here.

As you can imagine, we have been busy with a variety of projects this summer, including harvesting our zucchinis and waiting for our pumpkins to come up. We have been netting our fruit trees to protect them from the rosellas and parrots.

Netting

We had a successful catering job down at Ocean Grove for the Tranquility festival, and this weekend we are hosting a retreat with His Holiness Devamrta Swami which has been attended by 80 participants. Before lunch on Saturday one of our guests informed us that a large tree had blocked the road on to the property, but this was no problem for Manigriva, who moved it in 5 mins with his chain saw and the winch of his four wheel drive.

Fallen tree

We will continue with regular postings from the beginning of February, so please stay tuned.

Until then, I remain in the service of Srila Prabhupada.
