  1. Great photo's and looks like you all had a wonderful day esp. 'front on flying dog' and the 'old exploding snowball in the mouth trick'
  2. good news that he's on the improve this morning laserlite is just that hard plastic roofing material you put over gazebo's and things like that. Bunnings should have that or something very similar.
  3. Superglue is a wonderful thing. I actually build plastic aircraft models jacobite & it's a very useful gap filler as well as adhesive. & yep, nothings better for sticking fingers to anything you don;t want your fingers stuck to. I also use it on myself when I forget that I should only use safety scissors. The problem with using super glue is that some brands (generally the really cheap ones) can cause skin irritation due to their makeup/ additives so just keep an eye out after you use it. From wikepedia (the source of all truth and knowledge) Superglue was in veterinarian use for mending bone, hide, and tortoise shell by at least the early 1970s. The inventor of cyanoacrylates, Harry Coover, said in 1966 that a superglue spray was used in the Vietnam War to retard bleeding in wounded soldiers until they could be brought to a hospital. As it can irritate the skin, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration did not approve superglue's civilian medical use until 1998 when a variant called 2-octyl-cyanoacrylate was developed.[citation needed] Some glues are 100% ethyl cyanoacrylate,[citation needed] but other glues may be have a mixed composition (e.g., 91% ECA, 9% poly(methyl methacrylate), <0.5% hydroquinone, and a small amount of organic sulfonic acid).[2] ... Due to the toxicity issues of ethyl cyanoacrylate, the use of 2-octyl cyanoacrylate for sutures is preferred.
  4. Could any mould have sprung up anywhere following recent rain/ hot weather? What plants in your/ your neighbours backyards are in flower? Houseplants? Any unusual mowing activity, council/ neighbour etc. weed spraying recently? Any new landscaping around? Have any neighbours had a pest exterminator in recently, used a flea bomb? Any unusual wind directions blowing things in from unusual directions? Have any family members changed perfume, aftershave, soap, dishwashing detergent or other cleaning products? ie anything unusual recently? edit - if you're thinking of replacing the plywood roof maybe look at lazerlite sheeting. It should (hopefully) be completely allergy free.
