Advertisers Delight

Adelaide's Clipsall 500

Ist and 2nd at the Adelaide Clipsall 500 on Sunday 20 March 2011.  Plenty of advertising to be seen.  Does it work?

Sexy Legs

These legs belong to a 77+ year old Greater Flamingo in Adelaide Zoo.   This Flamingo is older than either of my parents!

Long grass

Whilst briefly in London, I stumbled across this chap sleeping in Green Park (aptly named) near Buckingham Palace.

I recently spent a week in Darwin and was surprised to see many more long grass people than I was accustom when I left Darwin 20 years ago.  Long grass people (predominantly indigenous Australians) live without housing, in the parks in and around Darwin.  Anyone who has been to Darwin will know that during and after the wet season, the grass in some of these park areas is quite high.  I am not sure if the problem is worse, maybe I became oblivious to long grass people when I lived in Darwin.

So it seems that parks (with grass) are a good place to rest, no matter where you are in the world.

As the world passes by…

With all the financial problems facing the world, and the UK, this image seemed  bit contrary to me… people going about their daily lives, oblivious to rock solid institutions that caused the havoc.

The Hope

Visited The Hope in London, where you could buy a Fosters.  No one drinks Fosters in Australia, which is a bit odd, it appeared quite popular in England, particularly in the banking district.  But what would they know!

Wisdom

If we were born with all the wisdom we needed for our life, how different a world this would be.

What dreams are made of…

Dreams are often the connection of a series of unrelated events, the connections are commonly vague and objects don’t always align to our real world perspective.

The times they are a changin

We live in a world of constant change, sometimes large, sometimes small… this tree doesn’t seem to mind the four seasons.
