I’ve got a feeling we’re not in Kansas anymore.


Looking through a hole in the back fence, April 2010.

Good Friday, eh?

I bet Jesus is wondering what was so good about it!

I love the perspective on this shot...diving through a bolt hole.

Magpie, nothing too spectacular on the other side, unfortunately.

J, there is an element of vagina about this one, yes. I consider this photograph as part of my feminist manifesto.

Maybe it should be called..Shit Friday then, hmmm?

*tap my heels together three times and chant*.... "There's no place like home"

And for some reason, I feel like it looks like a dinosaur eye!!!

I dunno Kris, He got to hang around Calvary with his mates.
Beats being stuck with a public holiday and no where to go

If you want to be loved, be lovable.

Henry admires the view.

Zeal, n. A certain nervous disorder afflicting the young and inexperienced. A passion that goeth before a sprawl.

Here I have tried my hand at the homemade sepia-toned photo. I wasn’t happy with the way that the sun had washed out some of the colours in the original, so had a bit of a fiddle because I like the look on Henry’s face, and didn’t want to pass on posting it. I have a tip for those of you burdened with the great, unceasing weight of parenthood. I have a new recipe, in the vein of the quick microwaved chocolate cake . Get this, microwaved potato chips . I gave them a run on Sunday, Henry liked the so much I did it again last night. Tonight, I shall be experimenting with sweet potato.

Lay the slices on the microwave plate, whack a bit of salt over the top and nuke the buggers for five minut

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 .

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
