The New And Improved, What Are/ Have You Been Doing Today.

I am so over this friggin wet weather.....its summer and I'm sitting here in bloody tights and long sleeves...

Got the pool vaccuumed
Fed my magpie family that visits.
Took the boy to nippers
And soon off to read the Sunday papers, and the latest gossip with Warnie and Liz

 

Sweet, just broke my phone.
Why do new phones have to be so shit. my old phone took a real beating, or drowning or whatever came its way. Needles to say, he always came out victorious.

Just been down the river for a swim, too hot here. And the pool water is too warm and not as refreshing.

 

It must be weird having Summer in December, how do you fare with Winter themed Christmas songs?

 

today I was again sitting in this nice snow covered forest besides the farm, smoking weed

 

same here, we're suposed to be in summer but it won't stop raining!
c'mon I wanna go to the beach
and ride my bike!

the museum director called me yesterday and told me that the mayor is taking my marketing plan to the president to get more founds from the government to do it :2thumbsup:. Whaaaat, pretty crazy. It's been a great week

 

Cross your fingers and hope it turns into something long term

 

They don't listen to them, they only listen to White Wine in the Sun by Tim Minchin.

 

The Minch is a Beast <3

 

Aussie xmas carol.....sung to "Jingle Bells"

Dashing through the scrub
in a rusty banged up ute
swag is in the bag
blueys in hot pursuit

dolphins by my side
singing christmas songs
summertime and I'm just fine
in my boardies and my thongs
OH
Jingle bells
BBQ smells
lamb chops on the tray
grans pavlova, backyard overs
its the Aussie xmas way
OH
Bikini girls
surfin Bells
zinc cream all the way
oh what fun it is to ride on a scorching summers day
HEY

 

Loved It, Merry Xmas Mate...:xmastree:


Cheers Glen.

 

Back at ya:2thumbsup:
Its was on some wrapping paper I have

my aunty lives right across the road from the RSL in Bathurst....has done for 50 odd years..(and my uncle lived IN the RSL from 5pm most days)

 

That is most baffling!

 

Do you need a translation?

 

Last night was amazing! And in the most beautiful spot at the Kuranda amphitheatre.
Oh man, one of the best things I've seen!!

 

Went to the beach, had a sing along, had a swim, had a barbie



Heaven

 

No.

 

Car's getting looked at now. Not looking forward to the impending call regarding the cost of repairs

 

Car should've cost £330 but they didn't ask my permission to carry out the repairs or give me a quote. So I got them down to £264. Not bad since I was gearing up for 500+!

Now I need the snow to stop so I can get home tomorrow!

 

Back home and snow looks awesome.

I'm learning how to use my Grandad's Praktica IV with a DeJUR Dual Professional exposure meter ^^ Should have got some B&W film to practise with first but meh, colour is still good if I actully get some decent pics. I've only used battery operated film SLRs before so guessing the suitable f/ss is weird xD Hoping to use up the film tomorrow so I can get it dveloped on wed, to see if I've been successful

 

Fuck metering on film (unless you've got a little in camera meter) just memorise "sunny f-16" and get somewhere in the ballpark. Film has massive exposure latitude compared to dSLR and unless you send it off to some specialist lab it'll get auto corrected somewhat anyway

Made some fudge, rum and raisin seeing as how they had no vanilla at spar. It's setting a bit different than usual, staying smoother longer rather than forming nice big crumbly crystals, it will definitely set but I don't want smooth generic fudge. It was just starting to crystallise when I poured it into the silicone tray to set so hopefully it'll turn out ok.

Also it keeps snowing, and the BBC weather site keeps denying it, and I'm getting a bit pissed off. It was the same last year when we had heavy snow, I think they got a bollocking off some MP's.
