Well I'm up again in the wee hours of the morning. I did go to bed this morning and try to sleep, but the rash has me itching very badly. So far I have tried Cortizone cream and have given totally up on it. I have to reapply...

Last weekend there was a VE day event in the village, and for that we needed plenty of glasses. There were not enough available in the village hall, and the cost of hiring them, although not that much per glass, added up to quite...

I’ve been reading a book of Australian stories and tales. In one section it talks about people who came up with innovations that helped people of the day have an easier life. One of these inventions was the ‘Coolgardie safe’, also...

I managed to get a photo of the four little guinea pigs. I cleaned out their hutch this morning and gave them new bedding so they are happy little pigs tonight. They are much more vocal than I imagined and squeak and chatter away...

So my husband and I were leaving to go to the store today and a ladybug flew into the car. My husband was driving and the lady bug flew in front of his vision. He rolled down the window and and tried to get the lady bug out of...

I often browse on Ebay when I’m looking for something, just in case someone happens to be selling the thing I want, especially if it’s nearby. Today I thought I would have a look in case anyone is selling an office chair. Our...

I wrote about the tea and sugar train which carried supplies to those working on the Trans-Australian Railway. Railways have played a very important role in Australia but there have been a number of problems over the decades,...

Took my walk and went to see how the sunk boat is faring. It has been emptied out of rubbish, but is still full of water. I guess getting it afloat again is a bit of a poser. Certainly, I have no idea how to go about it. Still...

A quick search tells me that quite a few countries have ‘public pianos’. These are pianos placed maybe at railway stations or other public places where people gather. Anyone who wants to can sit at the piano and play to their...

On my canal amble I saw this weird looking boat. I was fairly certain it used to be a lifeboat from a North Sea Oil Rig and a quick search online proved that was the case. Normally bright orange these lifeboats/lifepods are sold...

Once again, the photo has nothing to do with the discussion. Like many other countries around the world, Australia was badly affected by the Great Depression. A clergyman and social reformer, Robert Hammond (1870-1946) had the...
