well the grand final of the afl finished last week in a draw, only the third time in all the years they have been playing this game here in melbourne, and of course it has now spread to other states of australia. i barrack for the saints !
this is the ground, the mcg, packed last week and it will be full again tomorrow. i was not flying above it, i snapped it off the television ! the captain of st kilda has a house down here in tasmania.
if third time lucky is a good omen, they lost the grand final last year, the drew last week and have a third chance tomorrow. go saints!!!!! and i am house sitting for a collingwood person
hobart this week has brought some snow on the mountain on tuesday
new blossom trees now in full bloom and falling, notice the bright pink one at the back of the tiers and i picked the last of these double daffodils
and snapped the first of the sweet peas
and i just loved the pattern of all these various green plants, all so different, nature's patchwork really
and me, well playing with a bit of sue spargo in fabric and wool, very basic at this stage ! and continuing with all the other bits. update soon !
a happy week, sun, snow, lovely views, meetings with family, not so good news for one, contemplation, friends home safely from a trip overseas, house for sale, a swap of cars, a sleep over party for the birthday girl and drawing the blinds on another calm evening here in hobart. all in all a good week, maybe it will end tomorrow with the saints winning and i finally get my hands on the chicken money !
