I've given a few guest lectures at local schools but on Monday I went further afield, to Marymount College. The students were quiet at first but as the class went on became more and more eng...

A small farm in the Northern Rivers area of NSW. A compendium of snippets for family and friends. Saturday, May 18, 2013. A short visit from Briony . A short visit from Briony and her friend Shanny (spelling? Reinforcing for me the absolutely stunning delight that can be delivered by a gorgeous stepdaughter. GO BRIONY! A fetching zombie look . Exciting moment as the tables turn on the dominatrix. But not for long, before the zombie is subdued . There was a bit of blood spilled, but not too much to mop up.

A small farm in the Northern Rivers area of NSW. A compendium of snippets for family and friends. Monday, May 12, 2014. I am oh so very fortunate to have loving daughters. Here's a photo of my Mother's Day 'card' from Yarrow . The bottom right hand panel alone reads as follows:. My beautiful mother, I know this is an unconventional. Card, however, we are an unconventional family, so I think it fits. You amaze me. You are always there, no matter what. I can’t understand how. View my complete profile.

A small farm in the Northern Rivers area of NSW. A compendium of snippets for family and friends. Monday, June 17, 2013. A bit of history of the Grange: Mike Wilson lived here 1949 - 1966. Well of course, I was absolutely stunned, and delighted. I invited Mike in to show him around and hear his stories. This is what I learned. Protestant Orange Lodge march, Clunes, ca. 1884. Mike told me his Dad had an old mare ('Bessie'? Over in the top paddock and he sent her off to the stallion and the ensuing foal, b...

A small farm in the Northern Rivers area of NSW. A compendium of snippets for family and friends. Thursday, February 28, 2013. Well, young Ruby has been playing and working with Elara a few times, and we've achieved quite a lot in the process:. To have a rug placed on and pulled off. To accept having clothes thrown on, over and under her. To accept having clothes dragged between her legs. To accept people jumping up and down suddenly all around her.

A small farm in the Northern Rivers area of NSW. A compendium of snippets for family and friends. Monday, August 26, 2013. Ride a wild horse. John's an amazing rider and is forging a very good bond with the beautiful mare Saturn, who he rides bareback. Look at the loose rein, and the balance . just lovely. And to think that years ago I out-bid the dogger (horse butcher) for this mare. Elara, that is, not Helen :-) ).
