Pauli, a tall dark strange englishman in a military kilt, helped us celebrate Australia Day today.
We met this joyous riot of a man while we were having a few Coronas and a light meal at Scarborough.
In a few weeks, we might forget what we ate, but we won’t ever forget our serendipitous meeting Paul and the laughter he shared with us.
Thanks for the fun, Paul. You make the world a better place.
This weekend when you spend more than $30 on grog, the local bottle shop will give you a free flag. How patriotic is that! Happy Australia Day!

Thanks Jurga!

A Postcrossing post card from Vitoria in Portugal.
Funchal was originally built in 1961 to cruise between Lisbon, Madiera and the Azores. At 153m in length, she’s much smaller than many of today’s cruise ships, but she still has all of the essentials, including two restaurants, three bars, a theatre, a library and a casino.
She can accommodate over 400 passengers, and regularly cruises around the world during the Northern winter.
Thanks for the lovely postcard, Vitoria!

He may not be the world’s best reader, but I think he’s the world’s best grandfather. “Glandan” (Bruce) read this bedtime story to the kids a few years ago, and we were lucky enough to film it. Contrary to what dad says, the monster in the story is a “Gruffalo”. It’s a delightful story by Julia Donaldson which is available at Amazon:
Here’s the bedtime video:
