    Bindi or Bidgee-widgee? Both hurt when stepped on. Nasty little buggers.

        Always did wonder why the kid was named that. Might as well call the kid Cactus or something similar. Unless it was short for Belinda …

      Bindii. I like the extra I because it express the noise one makes upon stepping with bare feet . The peril of the new house, unlike the old it hasn’t undergone sixteen years of genocide at my hand.

        Weed murder is soooo satisfying.
        This reminds me of a cartoon I saw way back in the 70s - two hippie dressed amorphous people both leaning over a tiny weed growing through the cracks in the pavement. One asks the other ‘do we smoke it or conserve it?’
