Alexander’s band

Another hit and miss weekend, and it all boils down to whether you believe it or not. Unless you get out there, you’ll have no idea of what you may be missing. With a positive attitude I stepped out of the house. The sky above was clear and speckled with stars, with who knows whatContinue reading “Alexander’s band”

Second best

You may recall a month back, to the day, Josh gate crashed an early morning Welly Dam session with the news he aims to climb a grade 20 this year. Having sufficiently completed his last challenge of bagging a 20min 5km run, his sights are now set on building his climbing fitness. Just like withContinue reading “Second best”

Poker faced

Being such a glorious day I simply had to get out for a wee bit. But first a bunch of domestic duties needed attention. And while I tended to those, Lisa wandered down to the beach for the customary dip. Not that I think I would have enjoyed the cold plunge nor the social sceneContinue reading “Poker faced”

Subtleties

Some will say it is not my strongest suit. Admittedly I do have a general tendency to call a spade and spade that, as time rolls on, I find more and more people struggle to deal with. The term comes from the Latin word subtīlis, meaning finely woven, thin, or delicate. It was adopted intoContinue reading “Subtleties”

I can feel it in the air

Since my first sighting of a Common Bunny Orchid (Eriochilus dilatatus subsp. multiflorus), when climbing with Craig at Wilyabrup five weeks back, I have only venture out once to see what else I might find. That ended up being a bit premature, when a week later at the Capel Nature Reserve didn’t see anything onContinue reading “I can feel it in the air”

Too many unknowns

A 1927 film titled The Unknown was almost lost forever, but was restored several years back. Considered one of the premier works of the silent film era. A period that commenced approx. 35 years before it started to wane, when technology enabled sound to be incorporated. An ability that crept into the scene in sameContinue reading “Too many unknowns”

The Waterboys

I have a vague recollection of including a reference about a guide being released, probably a wee while back now. One that had drawn Howsie and my attention, as well as many others. After my last visit to the UK in February we planned two trips to this majestic place. The first would have seenContinue reading “The Waterboys”

Calm conditions required

Going for a solo mission today I wasn’t intending to write anything up, but after finally plumping for a title for my last post I felt I had unfinished business. The term ‘plumb tuckered out’ came to me at the end of writing the post, and as such didn’t get any attention. Just as theContinue reading “Calm conditions required”

Plumb tuckered out

Things at work seem to slow down a tad during the Easter school holidays. Maybe due to hordes of people taking advantage of the opportunity to book just a few days off and be rewarded with a decent break. The downside for us, living where we do, is many of these people gravitate towards ourContinue reading “Plumb tuckered out”

Who wants to live forever

In the topsy-turvy world of weather these days, which is a self-inflicted phenomenon, the reason I got wrapped up in the topic of autumn weather having only just starting to feel like it has arrived in my last post was justified. The forecast was for warmer-than-average days and nights and a high chance of below-averageContinue reading “Who wants to live forever”
