Ready for our trip to Hong Kong

"can we get on the plane yet?"
We're at the boarding gates a full 90 mins early and I can't answer that question for the 100th time this hour. Luckily I spent a NUMBER of hours this week setting up iPad with movies and against the odds ( aka my tecnological abilities), I succeeded. He looks 5 going on 15. What a good little fella.

We're off to visit Jakes's good mate Dilan and our good friends Lucie and Neil who moved to Macau a few months ago. Whoooo hooo!!

Watch out, we're coming

It's clean up Australia day this Sunday and the Cutbush family is off to the park to help. In fact, I'm the site supervisor. Come join us!

Howdy

Toby is a little camera shy at the moment but happily agreed to this photo last week. Jake suggested the arms around each other. Awhhhhhh. Cute.

Ukki was here

Ukki(Finnish for grandpa) recently came to visit. Here he is with the "twins" as I call them as they even to share taste in sense of humour, energy levels, food likes (everything sweet), skin complextion and screaming habbits.

5 children

This is what 5 children at the beach look like. They are a lot noisier in the flesh. Malabar twice in a week. Yippee

I'm going to make an excellent old lady

Imagine how good my jam and chutney will be in another 40 years by the time I start making it for the CWA.

First batch of green tomato chutney is excellent.

Tomato central

It's amazing what you can find growing under a pile of weeds. These tomatoes are very hardy. My ambition is to make the green tomato chutney recipe I saw somewhere....
