We have a friend who is on a cruise with a group of her friends. They’ve been to Peru, Antarctica, Falkland Islands and now they’re on an island off the coast of Africa.
They organised a day tour but instead of the expected...

I’ve talked about our upcoming trip to Ireland. I haven’t talked about the hiccups which have occurred over the last few days.
To cut a long story short, our son has been waiting on a new passport. Meanwhile his visa ran out,...

A myLotter had asked to see photos of my sister’s garden. We didn’t take so many photos last time but she did have some very lovely amaranthus plants.
These are herbaceous plants or shrubs and can be either annual or perennial...

Warning: This discussion is not about food!
We listen to a lot of classical music and sometimes make guesses about who might have composed a piece we’re listening to. Vince is much better at this than I am.
At the end of the...

I found something to write about which gives me an excuse to put up some more horse photos from the endurance ride.
I used to assume myLotters would know most of the terms I did but I’m much more hesitant now. So have you heard...

The title is a joke!
Here is another photo from the endurance ride we attended recently. The veterinary surgeon is checking the horse to make sure it is fit to complete.
The markings on the upper neck show that it is a...

I’ve made up a collage from the horse endurance ride that we attended yesterday. It was held in a little place called Wilga which was once a timber town.
There is a small settlement there and every month or so they have a fish...

It’s 3.30am and very unusual for me to be up at this time but I can’t sleep so thought I’d post something then go on with processing the 200+ photos I took at the endurance ride yesterday. Vince has already started on his.
I’ll...

F1 racing car driver, Daniel Ricciardo, was born in Perth, Western Australia, so it might not be a surprise to find one of his racing cars in the Whiteman Park Motor Museum in our state. I must admit I didn’t take a lot of notice...

We’ve just returned from visiting my sister. We went to see the latest baby goat arrivals and they are very pretty with tiny little squeaky voices.
We took a casserole for lunch and my sister had made a potato pie. We also...

We’re off to see my sister today. She is eight years older than I am and lives about an hour away. She lives with one of her five sons and they have a goat stud. Her grandchildren distinguished her from other grandparents by...

The photo is of another creation in the town of Boddington, Western Australia. It has nothing to do with the discussion.
We’ve just come home from a visit to Vince’s brother, the second eldest, who, at 83, is on his way home to...

The photo is of some of the ethnic dancers at the Harmony Day we attended. The little boy loved his sword!!
After the entertainment, we watched the film, Wonder, on a blow-up screen. The adult leads were Julia Roberts and Owen...

At the finish of the Harmony Day that we attended recently in Treeby, Western Australia, the film, Wonder, was shown on a blow-up screen. They had trouble getting the generator to work and in the end they ran an extension cord...

The photo shows another of the interesting items in the main street of Boddington, Western Australia but it doesn’t relate to the rest of the story.
I wrote about a friend being a powder monkey so then of course I needed to...

The photo is another of the ‘sculptures’ which can be seen in the town of Boddington, Western Australia. I really love this one with the cement mixer bowl featuring as the back end of the ant.
We’re making a sad visit today to...

The photo was taken in Boddington, Western Australia, on our way home from a school reunion. The ‘helicopter’ is made from scrap material but isn’t it cleverly done?
The rest of this discussion is about something else...

On our way home from a high school reunion we went through the town of Boddington (pop. 1,900) is 123 kilometres (76 mi) southeast of Perth. Apart from agriculture, bauxite and gold-mining are the major industries.
The town is...

We attended a High School reunion yesterday for my former classmates. I went to a state-run school but Vince went to a convent school and, being a year younger, was a year behind me.
However, the convent only went to 3rd year...

Yesterday we went to a Harmony Day at the nearby Recreation Centre. I thought it was an international ‘Day’ but it seems maybe not. It’s meant to promote unity and diversity among different cultures and nationalities.
We were...
