Catching up with Photo a Day Challenge - December 2019.
Loving our lunch with Gwilym for his Birthday at the wonderful Acre Eatery.
Wonderful thing to do with a defunct Bowling Green, check out the website, so inspiring and delicious!
P.A.D. - 2.12.2019 - Lights.
David installing the upstairs lights on his Big Red Bus back in 2002.
P.A.D. - 3.12.2019 - Something Festive.
Not only festive but very beautiful as well... Christmas Bells.
Christmas Bell (Blandfordia nobilis) is a small plant of the Lily family, one of only four species in this eastern Australian group. It entered cultivation in 1803 as a glasshouse plant in England, followed by the other Blandfordia spp. They are popular in Australia as wildflowers, but only native plant enthusiasts cultivate them in home gardens.

What did you do today Penniedarling I hear you say... Could you hear my whinging and moaning to nobody in particular?
And after a lot of messing, a lot of mistakes, a lot of bad choices I ended up with this below! I was going to throw it out before David got home but... He loves it... and it is his Bus isn't it! Phew!
Big Party tomorrow :-)

Photo a Day Challenge - 15.1.2017 - Where I sleep... or should I say... slept!
This must be about 1984, we camped here for a couple wonderful weeks, just across the road from the beach.
L to R - Pennie, Briony, David, Tomos, Gwilym sitting on Tony's lap, Nerys, Heather leaning on Nerys and Chris! (Chris and Tony were young surfie boys from California, enjoying a tour of our Eastern Coast, they sleeping were in a tent beside our Bus. When Chris and Tony came to Sydney they stayed with us and only last week I heard from Chris' old girlfriend Margie!!)
Oh... and below is where we slept upstairs... about 10 people could sleep up here.
I was going to say that Downstairs was a lot neater than upstairs but.... this photo doesn't say that does it! Downstairs we had the kitchen and dining room :-) and another four beds if needed.

This is not a problem I ever had to deal with in my day as a mother of young children :-)
This is the email from a mother of an 11 year old who has a passion for model buses and quite pricey models at that.

Good Morning,
With sincerest apologies in regards to order my 11 year old son has placed without my approval at 3.15am on Friday, 12th August 2016.
I am hoping you understand the frustration and embarrassing situation my son has put me in for placing this order.
My son has a wonderful passion for transport and unfortunately, believed that it was ok for placing a order whilst i was asleep.
If this is unreversible please make contact with me on --------- and i will somehow have to make payment.
Once again i am extremely sorry for this inconvenience and hope you understand my predicament.
Yours Sincerely,
