Kathy and Gerry’s visit (in February!)

My cousin Kathy and and her husband Gerry visited earlier this year. We had a nice meal up on Mount Cootha and then went to the New Farm markets the next morning.

I especially like the 5th picture where Nell and Kathy are buying some snake oil wonder cream!

Hero’s Graduation

Nell has been sponsoring Guide dogs for a few years now, and she has finally had one graduate and become a guide dog. We were invited to Government House where our Governor Quinten Bryce handed out the awards.

Nell and her Mom had a quick tour of the Governor’s private quarters before realising I had dropped them at the wrong door. 🙂

Australian Marine Conservation Society – Shark Finning More Information

This is just so wrong it is unbelievable. I honestly think that someone has heard something incorrectly and it is all a mistake.

I cannot believe that in this day and age anyone would think this is a reasonable fishing practise. It should be outlawed in all Australian waters.
