(this is from the journal of ... but I sooooooooooooo agree with his intentions I just have to tell you too ...


The BIG NEWS for the weekend is that a special deviant is having a birthday today.
We know that he would be very pleased if as many people as possible wished him a happy birthday. He is currently away from home at the moment due to work commitments and doesn't even get to spend his birthday with his lovely wife

So make a fellow deviant very happy and head over and wish David a happy birthday for tomorrow.

If you can repost this in your own journal and spread the word it will make him even happier




coming soon

Despite rumours to the contrary Maz is alive and kicking (well actually she is alive and still unpacking from the move but more importantly loving life in the quiet retreat of Beechmont. The most difficult thing about living here is driving off and leaving every morning to go to work - down the mountain, past the dairy cattle, past the baby cattle, past the horses, past the occasional early morning walker or hang glider, trying not to take eyes off the road to glimpse thr all the trees the views of the Hinz Dam and the distant views of the Gold Coast and ocean (especially when going thru the particularly windeeeeeeeeeee section of the road).

More on all of this later.

Just wanted to say HI glad to be back (I proved I can live without the internet for about 5 weeks ... but it was difficult). I'm working my way thru journals, news, submissions etc ... slowly.

In the meantime just have to quickly share (b4 bedtime) that my daughter's wedding went off beautifully ... luckily Cairns only received the outer-effects of the dust storm that went across much of Australia that week - it was hazy but it wasn't red dusty yucky hazy

Talk to you soon ... hugs for now from me






coming soon

Back from holiday in Cairns
Back from my beautiful daughter's wedding in Cairns (photos soon)
Back from seeing my brilliant son who visited from Seattle for the wedding

Now busy packing (yes still) and moving tomorrow

New address, new phone, new internet (yet to be connected)

LOTS of deviations and journals to check ...

Catch you soooooooooooooooooon

Just been super busy painting, clearing, painting, gardening, painting ... and now I'm packing, throwing out, packing and then it will be cleaning

Yep ... I'm moving home to the beautiful semi-rural area of Beechmont
Yep, still in sunny Queensland - it is in the hinterland of the Gold Coast ...
Up a nice little 550 metre high 'mountain' (please remember even Australian's highest mountain is probably like a molehill to those living in Europe )

Oh and then I am going to Cairns for my daughter's wedding

My camera thinks I don't love him any more

In the meantime I have been enjoying seeing some amazing work here ... including these treasures

Happy snapping or whatever you do to keep you sane till next I drop in
