I felt like I was just saying once we hit Halloween, the year is pretty much over. And…it’s almost Halloween, but I feel it will be a lack lustre affair this year. Oh well. Such a shame it’s a full moon (I believe) and a Saturday night. Still thanks Corona for making the best of…

I tend to measure the year with certain milestones, once we hit Halloween the weather starts to become really nice, mid Spring is here days are warm and flowers are everywhere. Then we have Melbourne Cup (A big international horse race), then the year is done and dusted, Christmas is just around the corner. Well,…

It’s been a kind of a weird week, full of ups and downs. Dad has been gone a week already. I have been trying to sort out memorial stuff, legal stuff, banking stuff and all the rest of it, so Mum doesn’t have to. Some stuff hasn’t been too bad, so is ridiculous. I was…

Today marks the change of seasons, but in reality Spring (or true Spring) is still a little way off yet. However, it does make a marked difference when the sun is shinning and there is hope and promise in the air, for warmer days. This week’s SYW is another Harry Potter themed from the Goblet…

Time for another instalment of Share Your World meets Harry Potter. This week it’s the Prisoner of Azkaban. This is where things start getting really interesting in the HP world, I believe… One of my favorite gifts that Harry Potter received came from the Weasley Twins; and was “Mr. Mooney’s Marauder’s Map”. This magical document…

Last week we started a Harry Potter version of Share Your World, this week it’s Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, these questions have been such fun and a nice distraction from the current world happenings… Harry Potter can speak to snakes. If you were able to have conversations with any one animal, what…
