Farewell and adieu to you, fair Spanish ladies. Farewell and adieu, you ladies of Spain.


Two toothy terrors in the bath just last night for your enjoyment.

My little babies are not so little any more. I'm thinking of renting Ezra out to unscrupulous tour operators tricking foreigners into thinking that they've been attacked by Great White Sharks.

Hehe, sweet. Nothing like happy-kids-in-bath pictures.
But Kris, about the shark, PLEASE, "Al tiftach peh lasatan" (as we say in Hebrew, Don't say something the devil might overhear [literally, Don't open your mouth to the satan]). Israel TV last night showed the Australian river where the poor girl was snatched by a croc. Oi Gott...

Lovely picture. Ezra seems to be enjoying the bath but what is it that Henry is so deeply thinking about??
I agree with Priyanka that Jen and you must surely be enjoying these beautiful cuddling days with Henry and Ezra. touchwood...

Seems like Henry is getting very shy of cameras/videos these days!! No need to say that they are cuuuttee...you must be very tired of hearing that often :-)

Dina, crocs and sharks coming out our ears here. If they don't get you, the wallabies will!
Kris McCracken said…
Priyanka, girls scare me.
Kris McCracken said…
Colette, they certainly keep you going through it all.
Kris McCracken said…
Yamini, Henry wears the responsibility of holding Ez very seriously.

KL, it is more a case of he won't stay still long enough to get a photo!

Ah, Joe, you never knew the whole of it...

I still have the robot on the job. Here you can see the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery . And here is a poem: Soliloquy for One Dead Bruce Dawe Ah, no, Joe, you never knew the whole of it, the whistling which is only the wind in the chimney's smoking belly, the footsteps on the muddy path that are always somebody else's. I think of your limbs down there, softly becoming mineral, the life of grasses, and the old love of you thrusts the tears up into my eyes, with the family aware and looking everywhere else. Sometimes when summer is over the land, when the heat quickens the deaf timbers, and birds are thick in the plumbs again, my heart sickens, Joe, calling for the water of your voice and the gone agony of your nearness. I try hard to forget, saying: If God wills, it must be so, because of His goodness, because- but the grasshopper memory leaps in the long thicket, knowing no ease. Ah, Joe, you never knew the whole of it... I like Bruce Dawe. He just my be my favourite Austral...

There was nothing left. No reason, no conscience, no understanding; even the most rudimentary sense of life or death, good or evil, right or wrong.

Here is a self portrait. I’m calling it Portrait of a lady in a dirty window . Shocking, isn’t it? However, it is apt! Samhain , Nos Galan Gaeaf , Hop-tu-Naa , All Saints , All Hallows , Hallowmas , Hallowe'en or HALLOWEEN . It’s Theme Thursday and we’re talking about the festivals traditionally held at the end of the harvest season. Huh? No wonder Australians have trouble with the concept of HALLOWEEN. For the record, in my thirty-two L O N G years on the planet, I can’t say I’ve ever seen ghosts ‘n goblins, trick ‘n treaters or Michael Myers stalking Tasmania’s streets at the end of October. [That said, I did once see a woman as pale as a ghost turning tricks that looked like Michael Myers in late November one time.] Despite the best efforts of Hollywood, sitcoms, and innumerable companies; it seems Australians are impervious to the [ahem] charms of a corporatized variant of a celebration of the end of the "lighter half" of the year and beginning of the "darke...

In dreams begin responsibilities.

A life at sea, that's for me, only I just don't have the BREAD. That's right, Theme Thursday yet again and I post a photo of a yacht dicking about in Bass Strait just off Wynyard. The problem is, I am yet again stuck at work, slogging away, because I knead need the dough . My understanding is that it is the dough that makes the BREAD. And it is the BREAD that buys the yacht. On my salary though, I will be lucky to have enough dough or BREAD for a half dozen dinner rolls. Happy Theme Thursday people, sorry for the rush.
