It's the Week of Love.  Can't say I was inundated with cards and flowers, but Steve did bring me these photos from his and Sis' trip to Tasmania.  Above is Sis at Sarah Mel's seaside birthday party.

Sarah with her big brother, his mum Amy, and his brother.

Sarah, Steve and ubercool Sis in Lorraine's garden.

Sarah, Miyeon and Lorraine, Jake's mum, saying goodbye to Steve, Jake's dad.

Sarah and Miyeon were visiting from South Korea.  Wonderfully, Steve was visiting Tassie at the same time.  One day I'll get to meet them.

quick post for Tamasin

Saw this picture on Desire to Inspire blog (from Georgia's blog).  Immediately made me think of you.

Happy Birthday CKB!!!

I'm sipping a small bubbly in your honour - and as practice for Easter.

It was 19 years ago today...

Congratulations and lots of love.

And the winner is

David Atkins!!!!  After dinner at my sister's place a cuppla weekends ago, Mum and I decided to check out David's entry in an exhibition at Brighton.  Helen and David had actually been installing (I think that is the correct term) the sculpture when we arrived at their place, necessitating Tamasin and Willowa to wait upon us hand and foot.  It was dark by the time Mum and I got to Brighton but a very obliging security man took us on a guided tour by torchlight.  Exhilarating as this experience was, we decided to look again the next day in glorious sunlight.

Check out the little girl checking out David's work.

How lucky I am to live in such peace, prosperity, generosity and creativity.  Long may it last!

Love the New Yorker cover, and perfectly timed.  I was going to learn piano at 50.  And the Gallery, in my plan, was to be a room empty apart from a piano and a potted palm. So this could have been Rosie and I.
