Brisbane blog


Bernadette and I had a birthday holiday (for both of our birthdays) in Cairns. If you go there take lots of money, and have private transport to get around because everything is a stitch. Expect to pay more for everything. Cairns itself has little to offer, hence the need for transport, but do visit the Flecker Gardens. We have had the outside of our house repainted, and I have repainted most of the inside. Now the weather is dry again the bush turkeys are ravaging the garden again - pumpkins, sweet potato, tomarillo all fall victim. We just had the driest 6 weeks in 20 years, but I expect there will be more, extreme weather to come. My Niece, Rochelle, just had her formal, pictured below, congratulations.

This is a great blog and I am very proud of you both. I must come up to Brisbane,(with some night vision glasses if I had them) to catch an eyeful of those marauding bush turkeys! Love and good wishes, Ian.
