Welcome. Come on in for a cup of tea or coffee. I hope you are feeling talkative as I really haven’t a lot to tell you this week. The blustery weather seems to have left us for moment and summer has returned. In fact the temperature is perfect with little humidity so I am happy.
If we were having coffee I’d tell you that I have been working on putting my New Guinea photos into a book and today finally finished and submitted it to the publisher. I like having a few photographs that visitors can just sit and thumb through. Not everyone wants to come and cram around my computer to look at my photos. I tried to put some on a memory stick to show Mum on the television but that was a dismal failure. They wouldn’t play in the correct order and half were missing. She’ll be much happier looking at them in a more traditional fashion when they arrive early April.
If we were having coffee I’d tell you that I have done little as Roger has been painting the stairwell ceiling and walls. It puts my heart in my mouth as I watch him climb ladders which hang over the huge drop of the stairs. There would be nothing I could do to save him should he fall but at least I would be there. I’ll be glad when it is over.
If we were having coffee I’d tell you that we had a picnic of fish and chips by the river with Mother on Friday. It made a nice change to eating in a restaurant and gave us a lovely view as we ate.

So that is about it for my week. Have you read any good books or seen any films that should be seen? Has your winter turned to spring yet? Victoria, a state way to the south of where I live, is suffering dreadful fires at the moment and for them the wind is not helping. I hope everyone stays safe.
Thank you for dropping in for coffee, it is lovely to see you. Thanks to eclecticali who is our host of the weekend coffee share.
