Last night of the hols

This is our last night.  It seems extraordinary that we have been in Australia for so many weeks - I feel as though we have lived here rather than just been on holiday!  So tomorrow we have to say goodbye to our son and his lovely lady, and of course to the other little lady in his life who has become so big in our lives.  I am not looking forward to that.  But we leave them happy, healthy and getting on with life and you can't ask for more for your family.  And of course we are very lucky because we have lots of much missed faces to greet us when we get home next week.  We do have 3 days in Hong Kong so there will be a post covering that visit once we are home!


I don't have enough words to describe this wonderful trip so I am just going to sum it up with lots of photos.  I hope you enjoy them.
and saving the best till last

      Hi Frances
      Thank you very much and many thanks indeed for all your lovely comments on my blog! Much appreciated! I am home now. Just one more post to do on Hong Kong and then I will be looking around for material nearer home! I will also find the chestnut risotto recipe you mentioned a few weeks back! A

Early morning light

There have been some cracking early morning skies this week.  The sunrise has generated a strong rose gold light which has been picked up not only in the clouds but also through the silver-white grasses around the edge of the golf course. I always marvel at the clouds.  Constantly changing, formations that have never been seen before, never to be seen again.

In a vase on Monday - colour

The intense colours in my vase this week come from nasturtiums, sweetpeas and a single glorious zinnia! Their beauty and love of life speak for themselves and need no further words from me! Enjoy!

A simple vase on Monday

I have just one flower in my vase this week. A simple, pretty, wild narrow-leaved Michaelmas daisy. The vase is actually a black pottery cup. I wish I could remember where we bought it and who made it, but it is a great favourite of mine. I even made it the subject of a piece of artwork several years ago. Clearly shaped by hand, it has the air of a Japanese piece about it.
