If there is anything that we wish to change in the child, we should first examine it and see whether it is not something that could better be changed in ourselves.

Henry, what are you doing?

Creative activity could be described as a type of learning process where teacher and pupil are located in the same individual.

Here's Henry trying out the public bidet up in Burnie back in February. We really do need some of those around here...

Adventure is just bad planning.

Ezra is urinated on by a giant squid sea creature in Burnie.

I liked things better when I didn't understand them.

I could be wrong, but I think that this tree is connected to the Internet. I hope that it's live blogging on the Tasmanian election from the distinct perspective of a Braddon-based Araucaria heterophylla , but fear that it's more likely to be trolling the Guardian Unlimited sports pages or fishing about for some cheeky upskirts of a barely-legal Athrotaxis selaginoides . [Or they could be lights...]

Exuberant health is always, as such, sickness also.

The Burnie Surf Life Saving Club headquarters has been done up somewhat since I left town. The addition of a fish 'n chip joint in particular has won Henry's approval.

If you wish women to love you, be original; I know a man who used to wear felt boots summer and winter, and women fell in love with him.

Henry is practising his pirating skills at West Beach in Burnie, way back in January.\ At the moment he's good at yelling " AAARRRRGGGGGHHHHH ", scaling rope ladders, extreme violence, and making a mess; he's less proficient in grog drinking, sea shanties and burying treasure.

Failure to love is almost like murder.

Here is Henry headed west on Burnie's West Beach. In the distance you can see the light towers of West Park Oval, home to the Burnie Dockers Football Club. Behind that oval is the penguin rookery featured yesterday. This is right on the CBD of the city people! Get to Burnie now! QUICK!

Every Harlot was a Virgin once.

Here is a shot of a penguin rookery located right in the heart of Burnie (West Beach, to be precise). You can't see any penguins because they are all fast asleep. How, I am not so sure, given that Henry and Ezra were making a terrible racket at the time.
