No we were not partaking in what is claimed to be Australia’s top breakfast drink. Yet another packaged and processed way to start the day, which advertising will claim is good for us. Instead a simple cup of tea sufficed to prepare Howsie and I for another Friday session. It’s been a stinker of aContinue reading “Get up & go”

Nothing to see
This will confuse Adrian. He’ll have no recollection of the opening image nor a few to follow. There are four orchids that are known to flower early, potentially popping up in March. Working from home on Friday meant an early finish and the chance to head into the Capel Nature Reserve to see what IContinue reading “Nothing to see”
Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy
Not for lack of trying it has been close to two and a half years since Kym and I have managed to catch up. To be honest I was a little shocked when I realised just how long it had been. My memory has failed me, and I have no recollection of what went wrongContinue reading “Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy”
A deep dive
We have longed talked about going for a snorkel off the iconic Busselton Jetty. At 1841m long, in approx. 8m of water, and with no major rivers the general area to pump in fine sediments from the agricultural lands, the clarity of the water is generally better and more reliable than the shoreline waters ofContinue reading “A deep dive”
Giving back
It’s good to see a place with a fresh pair of eyes. Things we take for granted once again become fresh, interesting, and noticed. We had a relatively late arrival at the Wilyabrup carpark, which I didn’t complain about. With the sun up in the sky that bit more, the view back up the gravelContinue reading “Giving back”
Right as rain
When it comes to increasingly more common dangerous weather systems, we’ve really got nothing to complain about in our small party of the world. I may have had a moan about the generally more humid conditions and bigger swells this summer. These are however not even a drop in the ocean compared to what northernContinue reading “Right as rain”
That’s handy
For those that use Spotify, you may have noticed their algorithms for compiling your personalised playlists can get a bit samey after a while. Today driving out by myself I was keen for something a little different. Leading me to cautiously put my faith in the app to prepare a playlist based on an artistContinue reading “That’s handy”
If anyone can…
It was time for Lisa and I to get away for night for another mini-break. We ummed and ahhed about where to head and what to do, and plumped for a trip to Penguin Island. The last time I went there was with my folks and Elseya back in 2008. Lisa sadly couldn’t join usContinue reading “If anyone can…”
Adrian Gurvitz
While Howsie has for many years played in skater/surf punk bands, he has a wide range of music taste. I am not however sure this would extend to knowing Adrian Gurvitz. An English singer songwriter whose music career began in 1968, and is still recording and touring to this day. Not surprisingly his style hasContinue reading “Adrian Gurvitz”
Change of pace
I can’t conclusively say my hair of the dog remedy yesterday worked. True my arms were not as achy at the start of today as they were on Friday. This may however have resulted from the muscles having naturally repaired themselves sufficiently for the achiness to subside. The arms seemed to feel ready for anotherContinue reading “Change of pace”
