Ok, I've been a bit lazy about keeping this site up to date (about 2 years ago), so tonight is the night of adding blogs. Over the summer (2007) Belinda and I were pretty busy doing stuff around our house (see Photos - Around our House). I finally finished off a stone wall which I started about 4 years ago and also commenced work on number of other projects which will probably take equally as long to complete. Bee and I both got work in March so the house projects have slowed right down, also the kids started school in Feb and consequently everyone has had quite a lot of change and new routines to get used to, but I think we're finally starting to achieve a bit of harmony.

This weekend we had our annual bonfire at Mylor. It turned out to be a great evening with clear skies and infinite stars. We had collected a fair bit of wood from around the place so it was a good size fire this year, but recent rains has made the wood pretty damp. The usual fire lighters weren't going to work, so I applied a handy trick I learned from Matt as a teenager .... petrol.  Hot embers made to job a bit tricky, so we had to add the petrol by throwing plastic bags from a distance. It kept everyone on their toes and in no time at all we had a good 10m flame.

 

Bee cooked up some great food and along with good company and a moderate amount of beer and wine , the evening was a very enjoyable one.  (see photo album for pickies).
