Mothers Day voucher

Thanks Fiona for the movie voucher which I shall really enjoy using. With the Greater Union cinema just up the road, its a lovely gift and will think of you each time I go and as being a senior, I will get 6 movie entries.

Anzac weekend

John had one of his boys lunches and here we see Rodney, Jo, Darrell, Martin and Anna having a BBQ. They all had a great time. Meanwhile I took myself to town and saw two movies -The Last Station and Beneath Hill 60 which were really good. I wandered about as there were many peoples due to The Anzac marches and of course, the celebrations at every pub I passed. A kilted Scottish band played at a pub then proceeded, I suspect to the next one down George Street.

Pineapple

I was given a pineapple plant when I left work which I planted in the ferny area. When put in (Jan), the pineapple was small and green and the other day it had to be cut, as it was toppling over. It was delicious. I replanted the top of the pineapple to see if that will grow and maybe next year will have two.

VFL

Hawthorn played Wester Bulldogs this afternoon and with the before and after photos above, need I say more. Theres always next week.

A quiet week for me with spending time in the garden and reading.

Easter weekend

Today John and I caught the train into town to see the Archibald, Wynne and Sulman prize paintings. Even though the queues were long, the people moved along and had plenty of time to view the collection. Some were terrific but others not. After this we walked down and around the gardens and had lunch in the cafe. Tomorrow Hawthorn is playing so I am working in the garden for the afternoon.

On Tuesday, I and the ladies went into the Dendy and saw - Brothers - good movie and as it was raining we decided to miss the Botanic Gardens and headed straight to the Mitchell Library to see the exhibition.

Today Henry is being christened and hope all have a good day.

Good Friday

Happy Easter to all.
