Was speaking to the previous owner of my house and he was asking how the bush lime tree he had planted was going and if it had borne any fruit. Went out and checked to find these:



There's about half a dozen fruit on there atm.

Apparently these trees are pretty rare and this is the first season that this plant has borne any fruit.

Also known as Australian Red Lime or Red Centre Lime.

I remember that (from ~1977), it’s quite distinctive! More manicured now.

Great picture, but who gave the nod to putting solar panels on it, really spoils it.

My local Ford dealer has a 'fleet' of Falcons as their loan cars whilst your car is being serviced. These are generally older models, ranging from AUs through to BFs. Most have a significant number of kms, are mostly gas converted and are, generally, in average condition.

Last week I had the ute serviced. I got a BA XT with approx 250000km on the odometer. It suffered from the ubiquitous sagging head lining issue. At least, it had suffered from that at some point, but a rather unique method had been employed to address that issue:
