The view or two from my "office"

A Persian panel, but I didn't take note of the subject.

A Persian panel, but I didn't take note of the subject.

I googled to see if I could find out, and came across this:

On 25 January 2006, a visitor tripped which resulted in three huge oriental [Qing dynasty] porcelain vases being shattered and requiring painstaking reconstruction.

Definitely an Oops moment. Didn't notice the repaired vases, but most of the fragile items are secured behind glass screens.

The vases don't take me, but I quite like that Persian panel! It would make a nice addition to my small collection!

Ordinary CNS day today. Was about to snap a pic of the weather and someone parked a Tiger in the way. (I'm not flying Tiger).

Don't visit Persepolis then. Its all laid out in the open, like, help yourself ... but the Iranian authorities might take a dim view as it went through airport security ...

Forget airport security ... imagine how much trouble you'd be in if they weighed the hand luggage!

A different view for @QF WP, who has usually got the nosebag on looking down on North Cott from those places above when he’s in PER.

Some more of Perth - but with no random capitalisation.

This morning we went for a walk along Bannister Creek near us in Riverton - about 14 km from the centre of Perth. The creek used to be pretty scrappy with little water in it over summer and lots of sandy edges with little bird life - little more than a drain. About 6 years ago they put in in rock riffles to slow the water down and create pools. Plus they have planted lots of reeds etc. It has been a great success and the creek is a really nice place to walk alongside on a hot day - 40 C today.

A lovely pool for ducks etc in the middle of summer.
