Photo a Day Challenge - Day 81 Kitchen Sink

When we moved from Guildford, we literally packed everything, well maybe not everything, but it seemed as though it was everything INCLUDING the kitchen sink!! But, alas, that had to stay as it was needed by the new residents...

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 79 Before/After

We purchased our house back in 2005, and moved then moved into it in the June. This is what it looked like out on the back veranda...

One of the first things to be done, was L and her dad repaired some of the broken glass in the windows, which was done in the middle of winter when I was overseas I might add! Then it was a matter of a quick lick of paint, as seen in this picture.


House rear AFTER

Now, after nearly 10 years, this is how the back veranda looks, with some cast iron columns, cedar fluted posts and a bit of furniture (currently inside whilst Bronty is a puppy)

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 78 Funny

This is the start of a 'catch-up of OVER a month, so my apologies for not keeping up due to being busy and a little bit of "what do I post"...

BUT, in 2010 when I was in Germany, I caught up with (for the very first time, Maribeth who was also in Germany (Berlin)! We went to the Tierpark Zoo for the day, and we had a ball. This photo, was simply 'Funny'!!

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 77 A Corner of your Home

This phot, is quite literally, a corner of the house! It is the join from where the tuckpointing, facade, meets the repoint, side, of the house. I had this redone in January 2011, and I am so happy with how it turned out! It not only made it look better, but it also corrected any cracks that may have been there!

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 76 Green

Green, as in colour or green as in Sustainable?? I'll opt for the later... Last year, we went to SITA at Kemps Creek. It is a waste processing facility that we use at work. We were shown the way in waste, our waste, is processed and managed.

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 74 Car

Ok, I'm not particularly happy with this photo, but, Im not precious and I will post it anyway... I was out in the Newnes State Forrest, and I wanted to get down to the 'Lost City'. Unfortunately, for me, there was a bog hole that I got stuck in... Oh well, I got towed out and came home instead!

photo a Day Challenge - Day 73 Clouds

In this shot, we had not long left Berlin's Tegel airport, shot through the clouds, and started tracking towards Helsinki's Vataa airport. I like flying, above the clouds or countryside gives you time to take it all in, ponder whats going on, and just enjoying the scenery below... Ahhh the bliss...

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 72 Sign

This is, although not technically, a sign... But, its painted onto the very edge of the platform at Woolooware railway station in Sydney. Its just a reminder that, there can be a gap between the train and the platform...
