Grow

This is possibly one of the "lesser" camelia bushes/trees in Bridie's new garden one thing she didn't want to grow in her garden were camelias. Ah well she will begin to know and love them better methinks.

Coffee, tea or me

Gotta love a coffee and lamington

Or perhaps a cuppa and a whacking great biscuit

Or just an earful from me!

Slim pickin's

It was a real struggle to think of something that happens or that I have seen that prompted the thought of "slim pickin's". Perhaps it was because there were slim pickin's in our garden in Aireys that the King Parrots that came into our garden stayed such a short time.

Sweet , sour or sassy

This was a hard one to do and actually there is no sour in this photo but lots of sweet and sassy.

Additional note thanks to Michele- the sour note is not seeing them more :(

Don't bug me!?!

Sitting in my lounge room catching up on reading and quiet contemplation I could hear what sounded like some sort of rhythmic activity. Having gone onto the balcony to investigate I expected to find some type of dance group doing their thing in Fire Fighters Park but no there were only people sitting eating or sleeping.
Then I noticed in the back alley behind the buildings on 48th and 49th two people. I grabbed my camera avec zoom lens to get a closer look/shot.

 

I had to wait ages before he began swinging punches again. He was being coached/ training. i imagined him saying as he swung each punch "Don't bug me!"

Clearly!

I was lucky, Michele made sure that the celebratory dinner was held when I was home-and I was invited.
The evening was a delightful dinner and speeches and conversation.
Clearly she is valued for her intellect and care of mothers and babies.
Clearly she is treasured as a colleague and friend.
Clearly she is going to missed on a day to day basis.
Clearly they know and love her.
Clearly I am truly proud and happy for my sister and her achievements.
