New Pud Hanger

 Amongst the busyness we found five hours yesterday to get the Christmas pud cooked and hanging nicely from the new shower head. This has a flatter shape that allows the tied cloth to grip without sliding. (tautology - if something is gripping then also saying it is not sliding is not necessary.!)  We have been held hostage by the line after line of driving rain here yesterday but it did make for a good Pud Day.  This morning woke us up with a clattering of heavy rain on the windows.  I noticed a mother with a child on her front, also with a rugged up toddler in tow and two dogs being walked and bending at the same time to get multiple dog poos along the trail. Right, that's it I am going down with the rubbish bag in hand to see what is washed in, no matter what the weather is doing.  I got the usual blue tops, plastic bottles and cigarette butts but also two ice cream containers. I have never seen one before and today there were two.  I mostly fished stuff out of the creek, as this was more sheltered and the water level was high which meant I could reach without jumping down.
