have a ripper festive season!

its my self assigned role to keep the tunes rolling during all the late night, midnight feeds to ensue the comfort of both mother and child

Starving greyhound as seen on Animal Rescue the other night. You get these turkeys who race the poor dogs then severley neglect them when the can no longer race.  Made me realize were lucky to have the RSPCA in Australia. The other stories were a poor little kitty who had its paw chopped off in a rabbit trap, and a beautiful newborn calf who's mother just passed away, poor little calfy was having trouble drinking milk from a bottle.

is that a huge lizard in the paddle boat or are you just pleased to see me?
this could potentially ruin someones date

Rhys, Stu Tao and I were lucky to see the magic fingers bash the sitar a couple years ago in the Adelaide Botanic Gardens

sure as hell mad realizations at a young age

my eyes at the moment of the visions

Lulu still has all her soft toys in her bedroom – very cute really for an 8 year old.  On Sunday we went to her piano recital.  There were about 10 pianists – she was 4^th on and did a very good job of 2 pieces.  It is a good idea to get them to perform early, like they do at their school when they have different grades doing a singing item most Mondays.  The Sunday concert had beginners up to grade 8 pianists who could have performed at the concert hall.  There was one poor Chinese kid, Richard Fu, 8^th grade pianist and played amazingly but poor kid had the personality of a dial tone and Mum was hovering around him and I reckon he would practise about 10 hours a day. He had on a white shirt even with the top button done up.
