Friday Hoyden: a Flickrfind
Hoydens, originally uploaded by shelley1685. These girls are relaxing at the annual Rabbit Stick gathering in Idaho. Each September, hundreds of people gather in a wooded area outside Rexburg, Idaho, to rediscover their “stone age” heritage. They work with primitive tools, learn to build fire by rubbing sticks together, and participate in a rigorous assortment [...]
Spent day with camera (and partner)
Thus no blogging. We walked around the Sculpture by the Sea track, and then went to some ponds covered in waterlilies. I’ll get those shots up on Flickr tomorrow, once I’ve sorted through the best. (Addit: OK, I’ve started putting up sculpture pics – the set of thumbnails is here, and there is a slideshow [...]
Wednesday Wow: aerial
So many shots taken from plane windows are rather pedestrian, but the mountains silhouettes against the sunrays and the clouds make this one pretty spectacular.
Busy day yesterday
Lots of things going on, panicking clients and minor domestic urgencies not least of all, but at least I got a walk in Centennial Park and some photos even if I didn’t get any writing done. He didn’t want to stop running, but almost stopped for a moment After some coffee and brunch with Suze [...]

Feeling just a little bit delicate
This mob got me boozing yesterday morning, and the bubbly was so nice we kinda kept going for the rest of the day. Drowning our rugby sorrows, I guess. So, light posting from me today. Originally uploaded by tigitogs in the Brunch set. Related posts: Busy day yesterday Spring Sunrise this morning Sunset My goodness, [...]
Urban Clown Posse, Avian Division
This morning, a pair of sulphur crested cockatoos decided that my neighbour’s citrus trees desperately needed pruning. They were chopping off branch-tips 30-40cm long, and throwing them into the air. Oranges and lemons were also snipped to plop noisily on the ground. Then this rascal had the cheek to raise his crest all offended-like just [...]
Chris Clarke wants marsupial tales
So he’s tagged me with this Animeme, via Bora. I’m not that much into memes generally, but this one appeals to me. I’m afraid it takes me a little while to get to the marsupials, but I promise they’re here.

I reckon the owner of this house/car combo is never seen with a belt that doesn’t match the shoes.
Now there’s a story arc
Last night’s Dr Who 3rd season finale and the future story of Captain Jack. There be spoilers ahead.
