How could I not write up our wild weekend. Sunday was always predicted to be an entertaining day, which started with me being woken up at 2am by the gale force gusts buffeting overhead. The winds didn’t stop till late into Saturday night reaching near Category 2 cyclone strength. This broke the previous record ofContinue reading “The deafening silence”

Johnny Nash
Much as it may seem that I am always out and about. The vast majority of my awake time is sat in front of a computer, if not at work then at home researching my finds and writing them up. In both screen focused situations I am a shocker for getting stuck into it. SatContinue reading “Johnny Nash”
Timing is everything
Arriving in Busselton for a meeting on Thursday morning the town was clad in a blanket of fog. The drive down seemed a little eerie with visibility at times down to less than thirty meters. Pea soup sprung to mind. It was all the talk on arrival at my location, a wondrous and strange morningContinue reading “Timing is everything”
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”
