Showies
We have lived in Broken Hill for over three years and this evening we finally went to the Silver City Show.
As a kid I used to go to the Spring Festival celebrations in Cornwall with roots …
more...Another Sunday
A truly dull Sunday. I have been doing the tax. I do not really feel like it. On the plus side, tomorrow is a local Broken Hill holiday, Picnic Day. Maybe things will pick up.
more...Bilibin
Even though it looks like my Mum is about to cheekily poke her tongue out at the photographer it reminds me of Ivan Bilibin’s beautiful illustration which I used on this post and currently on my 404 error page.

I got back into Broken Hill on Saturday night and slept like the dead. That journey home absolutely kills. Yesterday I just loved being home. Having a shower in my own shower, eating with Re & H on the couch, watching some telly and going to bed. In my own freaking …

Since leaving Cornwall Re and I have been documenting our travels on Facebook and Instagram. I have …

I left my Ma in tears again. We waved from the train in Totnes as the carriage moved off. We all had the sad sparkly eyes for a quiet time as the train sped along the seaway. Too many goodbyes for me this …
more...Goodbye Cornwall
I left Cornwall behind having not done a fraction of the things I wanted to do. My brother drove me to his home in Northumberland. He then left me to my own devices for a couple of days as he had business in Aberdeen. I have the luxury of staying …
more...Not about the Coronation
I wrote and deleted a long post about an argument I had with my Dad. Instead I’ll summarise with a tidied up extract from an email I sent to MJD.

Ionian Sailing
Trani was lovely, a pretty town but not overrun with tourists. We are now on Lefkas which is the island next to Kefalonia. Last night we slept in Kerenza, our chartered sail boat moored besides a taverna in Sivota.
We are all completing practical Royal Yacht Association sailing qualifications. Fiona …
