Photo a Day Challenge - 28.9.2022 - My Culture.

What is my Culture??? Mmmm... Well I'm pretty weird... I don't like Tea or Coffee, or anything Alcoholic, I've never smoked, I prefer my veggies to be raw, I like raw fish but not raw shell fish... I knit for the family, I sew, I make patchwork quilts, I write books for the family, I have several Blogs, I don't like wearing a bra, I don't like painted nails, don't wear makeup of any sort, I prefer to swim naked, I love a beautiful garden but hate gardening, I love family history and love researching, I get motion sick if not in control of the vehicle I am in... see I told you... I'm weird!

So is this my Culture? A Weirdo?? I think I will accept that Culture with Pride.

Daylight Saving...???

New Zealand sprung forward one hour today...

United Kingdom falls back one hour on Friday...

NSW, Canberra, Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania will spring forward one hour next Sunday...

but Queensland, Northern Territory and Western Australia stay the same all year.

Mmmm... easy peasy???

I do like Daylight Saving, I love to get up at Dawn and enjoy more sunshine in the early evening.

David and I really enjoyed a lovely couple of hours at the Opening of the Hornsby Ku-ring-gai Community College Art Exhibition last night and we were bowled over by the incredible talent!

Wonderful Cakes but best one by far is the cake on the right and below!

Yes... not only did our daughter Nerys organize the Art Exibition expertly... she can also ice cakes expertly! Very proud of her we are.

Just fascinated by these photos of rocks by the beach.

These works of Art really blew my mind, it's called 'Papertole' and it's impossible to stop looking at every piece over and over again.

This one gave me an extra smile, Rip and Rosie took us to Queensland back in the 1950's with a Caravan like this one in tow.

Wow! These photos just don't do these works of art justice... Wow!

Nerys gave a beautiful Speech opening the Exhibition.

Hornsby Major Philip Ruddock was there and I enjoyed a lovely couple of chats with him as our daughter Briony was friends with one of his daughters while at school, Philip showed me lots of photos on his phone of kids and grandkids! Lovely.

Charlie was there as well, hiding behind some bottles of stuff.

A large range of foods were supplied then Pizza later on and Tim did a great job as Head Barman, serving all sorts of things, see above.

Fifty One Today, Fifty One Today...

... We moved into this lovely (riddled with white ants) home, ten years later we built our current home behind, pulled this one down and built a tennis court.

Wow! 51 Years! AND... guess what happened 10 days after our moving in!
