The view or two from my "office"

Can't find the photo right now, but heck.. at my local co-op supermarket it had it written on the price/name label as a suggested way of drinking it

Typical uneducated English

Had a lovely picnic lunch at Lyne Park in Rose Bay today. It is the site where the Qantas/ Empire flying boats started flying from (to Southhampton in the UK) in 1938. It was a trip that took 9.5 days.

And as we were leaving one of the seaplane came in. Came in to land, decided against it, circled around and came at it from another angle.

Funnily enough it was for a Spanish white wine

Christmas day in Chicago.. streets were very quiet!

Nice day to be out for a skate though.

Nice little track around a rock climbing wall, a bit more interesting than just the standard square ice skating rink at Millennium Park.

Very hot day in Adelaide today but nice night at Henley Beach

Not exactly sure where, but just before the top of descent into HEL.

A stroll around the Pilsen neighbourhood in Chicago. Lots of cool artwork around the place, galleries and also vintage shops. I may or may not have found myself a cool tweedy jacket for a steal.

I'm very excited so bring them on - a mild 37 outside - might be another drive to the beach tonight

Alright, a trip over to Lincoln Park Zoo today.. it's free to enter, which is cool! They have a Christmas light display there too, so fun to wander around.









Those of you on FB, there's a few videos to chuckle over

 

[VPS]

They look like a lot of fun @Flashback

Noice. Good fishing?

Care to share where?

Think he'd rather not disclose where.

I remember as a kid in Tassie we'd go to a beach in summer and if there was even one other family on the beach we liked we'd drive on to the next one so we could have it to ourselves. Pretty sure we were always successful.

What’s the water temp at your office @RooFlyer?

Not sure, but I think most AFFers would regard it as "cold".

Sure, I've posted this scene in its normal deserted state a number of times here. Spring Beach, on the east coast of Tas. Fishing off the beach isn't that great; a mate and I usually go for flatties in the bay.

Where I live is a sleepy little town on the water - it only comes alive this time of year, and Easter when the 'shackies' come in force. This year - OMG ... maybe its the booming Tas economy but it seems everyone has invited a dozen friends to stay over. Every backyard a campsite; 4-5 cars outside not uncommon.

On the plus side to caravanning in Tasmania, you don't haul your excrement across state lines

Yes. I can see how that works for you
