This week's title is Wonders. Clockwise from upper left: A mother squirrel toting a large baby squirrel, a brown-and-white cat on a roof, the Roman arena at Pula, Croatia, a double rainbow over farmland, a great white egret in a tree, the Temple of Augustus at Pula, a narrow street in Medulin, Croatia, and a Roman mosaic floor.

How's early summer treating you so far? Here at the Post Office, the rain has been generous. The grass is growing faster than the lawn mowers can keep up. The bunnies are happy: there's a bumper crop of them this year, and the birds are out in force, so we have lots to look at. Down in South Africa, Willem reports that the weather's still nice. He's going on excursions. We get the benefit: you're going to enjoy this week's outing report, particularly if you like cute little legless lizards.

Everybody's been out and about this week. We have a lovely tour of past and present in Croatia, courtesy of FWR. The Hoggetts have been looking up again, and were rewarded with a double rainbow over the field. Bluebottle's been busy: he spent time at the Riverfest, and then nipped out to pay a visit to Marvin the Paranoid Android to see how he was enjoying Towel Day season. He was very depressed. No surprise there.

Angel LiaDan saw a busy mama squirrel. FWR went on a hunt for a Roman mosaic and found it – under a car park. Tavaron spotted the Greater Cat-on-a-Hot-Tin-Roof. You won't see stuff like this anywhere else on the internet, folks. Count yourselves privileged.

We've got humour. We've got fiction. Some of it is exciting. Some of it is funny. The rest is merely baffling. Read it all, anyway.

Have a great week, wherever on the planet you are. Send more Stuff. This kind of craziness takes an effort on the part of all of us.

Quote of the Week:
The Reeperbahn, Hamburg's sinful mile. Here, you'll find drinking, gambling, prostitution and more.

But do not dare to cross the road when the pedestrian traffic light is red, people will still shout "ist Rot!"
