Goodbye 2011

These guys were seeing the year out on a blow-up raft towing an esky full of beer.

See you all tomorrow.

Talking 'bout Books in December

I started to read 'The Childrens Book' by A S Byatt but found it needed time to digest (come back to it later). Picked up 'The Song House' by Trezza Azzopardi, enjoyable read, intriguing.

I'll read the others next year. Oh yes -
HAPPY NEW YEAR.
