to travel...

I don't feel that I have done a massive amount of travel however every little bit that I have done I have very much loved. These little jars hold a few bits and pieces from each of my adventures, some of course when I was young and carefree and now from travels to destinations that have kids club! 

Taking pride of place on my new bookshelf I can't help but look at them and wonder where will be next...

Cup Craze

Cup weekend is fast becoming my favourite of all the long weekends. I love the feeling of excited anticipation for the coming festive season without the actual madness that the coming months bring. Although this weekend marks the start of a crazy busy period of both work and family commitments it was great to seriously just sit about and relax today. Apparently somewhere there was a horse race on, not that the furry locals who stopped by for a visit could have cared xx

an eggcelent time

nothing says Somers Arts Fair now quite like the Eggathon - put simply a chicken walks around the fair selling "eggs" that will be later thrown between teams of two over an ever-increasing distance - the team who lasts the longest without breaking their egg as the distance increases wins! I didn't capture a pic of the egg shaped perpetual trophy but believe me it's impressive - something a few Somers folk are keen to get their name on to xx

tropical vibe...

I think I was designed for a warmer climate, one where the day starts with a swim in the pool and with breakfast on the deck, where your washing drys in a matter of minutes and where the orchids and frangipani naturally bloom xx

trouble makers...



...just a little community watch report about these two trouble makers spotted on Lord Somers Rd today where falling pinecones were a plenty! 

It's really not too bad when this is all we have to report xx

over...

Well the holidays are over and she's back at school, I guess for me that means back in the office and getting up to date.

Here are few pics from a school holiday visit to McClelland Gallery - an amazing place to visit and ideal for a relaxing wander xx
