Introducing Merkin the Murchison House mascot


This is merkin. He is/was a wild boar the farmer brought down with his telescopic rifle. Merkin used to harass the young goats and give them worms so he had to be disposed of. Its a shame, but thats farm life. While we are on the subject of shooting, it was pretty odd having loaded shooters lying around the 4×4. Poor old merkin, at least his brain cage lives on to tell the tale via t’interweb.

The constant smell of death

You never quite get used to the noxious smell of death. In australia, in the outback, the smell of death is pretty much always present. The worst smell is dead goat…….they kick up a stink even when they are alive. In 50 degree heat, the smell gets worse. Almost makes you sick…..We devised a method to combat this..tshirt round the mouth. Stopped the flies too.

Still going strong

Can you believe this vintage beast is still working! I reckon its from the bald man comb over era or maybe even earlier. Proof of the pudding that they dont make them like they used to.
