A cup of tea anyone.  A few weeks ago wanted to have something different and couldn't decide which one, so bought a few.  I like the English/Irish Breakfast the best.
At the Stanton Library I saw and heard Michael Rowbotham speak about his new book plus stories that came to his mind.  He even signed my copy.  He will be one of many authors gathering for next weeks Writers Festival which I am looking forward to.
Am not a fan of William Dobell but still went to the talk at SMSA and the speaker (Paul Delprat) was so keen on all aspects of Aust. artists from their lives to their different arts, he made you feel enthused as he spoke.  Paul himselft is an artist, is the principal of Julian Ashton Art School where people like Tom Roberts and Streeton attended.  Excellent talk.
A couple of movies - My Afternoons with Margueritte at the Dendy was very, very good.  You left the cinema with a good feeling.  There was no swearing, nor smoking.  Yesterday because it was a mixed up day, and on the spur of the moment, saw Source Code.  Good One.
A visit to the dentist was a necessiry but glad its over.
Lucy's birthday and mother's day both in one week and had the treat of skype to see all the US family.
While I am having all this fun, John is working but he is well and says he has to keep at it so he can spend more.
