A Bit of Perth

The Guildford Post Office. Not just a noted landmark, it is still operating as a genuine Post Office.

It’s a Bikers Life

Email is a never-ending source of interest. Especially with the friends I have. Here is one example. Thank you, Denis. On a more serious note, here is the Hawg everyone, including Denis, wants! Of course, the humour with skeletons can get a little close to the bone. But for that you will have to choose [...]

Halloween Celebration

Hazel (which Hazel? You know which Hazel!) decided to cast a spell. She went down to the river and lazily threw the fishhook into the water for half an hour or so. “What are you doing?” a passerby asked. “Just casting, a spell,” she replied, annoyed that it wasn’t obvious.
