Large elephants in Australia

Large elephants in Cambodia

All enjoy bananas

Though this big banana

I’m sure they’d recoil from.

About Irene Waters 19 Writer Memoirist

I began my working career as a reluctant potato peeler whilst waiting to commence my training as a student nurse. On completion I worked mainly in intensive care/coronary care; finishing my hospital career as clinical nurse educator in intensive care. A life changing period as a resort owner/manager on the island of Tanna in Vanuatu was followed by recovery time as a farmer at Bucca Wauka. Having discovered I was no farmer and vowing never again to own an animal bigger than myself I took on the Barrington General Store. Here we also ran a five star restaurant. Working the shop of a day 7am - 6pm followed by the restaurant until late was surprisingly more stressful than Tanna. On the sale we decided to retire and renovate our house with the help of a builder friend. Now believing we knew everything about building we set to constructing our own house. Just finished a coal mine decided to set up in our backyard. Definitely time to retire we moved to Queensland. I had been writing a manuscript for some time. In the desire to complete this I enrolled in a post grad certificate in creative Industries which I completed 2013. I followed this by doing a Master of Arts by research graduating in 2017. Now I live to write and write to live.

We love elephants in this household. As I look out over my laptop, there is a large red one bought by son NO 1 and various smaller china and bronze ones accumulated over time. Your pictures made a nice surprise

  I’m glad you enjoyed them, particularly as you are having such dismal weather. Hope you are still dry in the house and as you are still online I guess the Thames is not through your living room.

  I went for a ride around the temples at Angkorr Watt on that elephant after he had finished his bananas. For me it was terrifying but he was a gorgeous elephant.

  The elephant eating the bananas was more than adorable (until I got on top of him). 😀
