What do a sock monkey and a blowfish have in common?

Well these are just 2 of the quirky designs available from Blik – wall graphics for the commitment-phobic. I spend a lot of my time convinced that no one makes anything I want to buy these are definitely an exception (as were the red desert boots I bought yesterday but that’s another story).

Up, up and away

I am so very tired today but there is a good reason for this. I bounded out of bed at 5:07 this morning to be on the doorstep of a friend’s house for her 35th birthday surprise. It was instigated by her husband and I was a mere player in the scheme. Amazingly she [...]

Fine feathers

Another reason to enjoy living in the bush capital is the abundance of bird life. The main road into Canberra (Northbourne Ave) was overtaken with white cockatoos this morning and even our garden has been know to house crimson rosellas, rainbow lorikeets and the odd king parrot – all of them stunningly colourful. We’re getting [...]
