First time Archery for most of us


Georgie showed us how it was done at a local archery club....... We all started on 5M and then progressed to 10M....... Except for Karl Jr as he though it was an interview to be cupids assistant. Martin was Herculean and moved to 10M with Mom and Dad and hit a few yellows. We all got bruised arms from the damn bow string but it didn't matter as a great time was had by all. We finished the day off with lunch at Big Pig Little Pig then an afternoon on the beach.

Christmas In Australia 2016

This year the kids got basic presents, books and practical gifts. The weather was fantastic and the food as usual was superb. Mom's gift came a little late and Dad got his cologne from Mr. Versace. We all enjoyed G's pavlova while crackers were popped and the kids fought over the best prises.

School Christmas play

Another year, another play. It's hard to believe that Karl will be in his last year of primary school next year. Time sure does fly. Martin blew the recorder while his royalness stood at the back making illuminati signs. It was a wonderful day as we sat on deckchairs watching the grades put on a  fantastic show. Mom and Dad were very proud.



Talent is not an option

I'm a Citizen - Finally

Seeing as I had nearly 5 months off sitting around doing nothing...I finally got my paperwork together and got my citizenship. One more thing to tick off. 

Ceremony was a very happy occasion and the Matthew McConaughey look alike got off to a shaky start, but he was soon getting into the 'swing' of things as was the organist who rose out of the floor in grandiose style!

It's a small world when you bump onto your kid's soccer coach and your son's best friend and his family who are all there to do the same. I've now finally got a Westringia to match the one that is flourishing well in the back garden, thanks Moorrabbin Rotary Club, and sorry I was so picky! :)
