London Eye

We went to the London Eye today.  Despite being touristy and all that, it was stunning.  It takes a half hour to go around and the view really was sensational. Underneath the eye — it stands 135 metres tall. The passenger capsules. Each one holds around 25 people. Ella and Jasper

A visual post.  Strange sight this morning, it was very still outside and the sky was full of Jet contrails criss-crossing each other across the sky.

The kids really do seem to be enjoying themselves here in London.  Of course they have their moments with each other, but generally they are playing well and enjoying each others company.Yesterday I trimmed the front hedge and Jasper took a piece and “hid” in the back garden.  When

C'arn the cats!

Whoo hoo!We are Geelong, the greatest team of all…It was a fantastic experience today to watch the Grand Final live with several hundred other passionate fans, mostly supporting Geelong.  Port Adelaide fans were surprisingly thin on the ground.  I got up and 3.50AM, had a quick shower

Strict schools

Did you know that when the kids are playing outside at school, and it’s time to come back into the classroom, a teacher appears in the yard and blows a whistle; then all the kids freeze!! It’s so weird – they’re under such control at school. I was

What the heck are plimsolls?

I thought England would be so like Australia, after all, it is kinda the original home? I have been surprised at some of the differences: 1. Kids do sport at school inside, and have to wear plimsolls. After asking around a few Mums at school, I determined that these are
