Australia Day

I love the first 6 months of the year, and for a very Australian reason: public holidays.  We’ve got them happening all over the place in the next couple months.  Hobart Regatta Day, ANZAC Day, Good Friday, Easter Monday, Easter…

Dining NCR

You’ve read that correctly: we’ve been dining NCR.  That’s not  ‘National Cash Register’, that’s ‘North of Creek Road’.  In Hobart, Creek Road is the Great Divide.  When you travel north of Creek Road, you can count on flannel being the primary fabric…

A Christmas eve miracle happened this year: Scott didn’t have to work the whole afternoon!  We left work at around 2 pm and met up in the Elizabeth Street mall.  Lottie was admired by many people (of course).  Feeling free…

A Destructive Christmas Eve Morning Walk

Christmas Eve – the last day of work until 5 January 2009 – hooray!  And it’s not much of a work day; Lottie will be in the office and we’ll all goof off and eat food – double hooray! Scott’s…
