Wattle Chicks feeding

This spring has been the most amazing one for bird life in my 7 years in this flat. I live on a second floor with gum trees outside and the birds are often eye level. I managed to catch some footage of two wattle chicks waiting to be fed.

Vigara sales pitches. The Collectors Edition

I used to get really annoyed with too many junk emails. The viagra sales pitches were the most frequent penetrators of my antivirus. They pissed me off until I realised how brilliantly devised they are, bordering on conceptual genius. Who cares about bad grammar and dodgy translation. It's at the heart of their charm. And the variety... I've never seen the same one twice! What brilliant marketeers can find so many fresh ways to say the same thing.

I stopped resisting them and started to collect them. Here I share with you my Viagra sales pitch collection for your entertainment. Pick your favourites. My top three would have to be 1) exclude flaccid hose risk 2) Don't let your porksword rust and 3) So hard you can break an egg. (You never know when that might come in handy.) Rank them in your own order of stupidity or just enjoy them as they are. I've listed them chronologically as I received them in my inbox.

I've got better antivirus now and I'm missing them already.

Scotralia

Last week I hit a cusp. I have lived half my life in Scotland and half in Australia (I'll ignore a year in NZ for streamlining reasons) . So I decided to celebrate Scotralia and got friends to dress in cultural mash up and we met down at the Merri Creek.  Perfect hanging out spot, perfect weather and just lovely to see so many fine people there.   That was the mellow part of the day with the kids and dogs.

Then we moved indoors and partied harder. Thanks to the diehards who insisted on some Scottish Country dancing.  I might have let it slip. And for those of you who don't know what they're doing in this first photo it's the 'WhooOOOoooch' bit of a dashing white seargent.

Bit of freestyling here from the girls.

Lovely weather for it

The annual nude cycle ride hits Melbourne again. And why wouldn't you?

It's just fun in the sun.  Here's the Brunswick St leg (and arm and arse).

Next year I'm gunna, I'm really gunna do it.

Stripping with strangers

This was in my in box.

You have to larf. It's an invitation to speed dating for the over 40's. Apparently participants will just bypass the pre date selection of appropriate clothing. They don't have to angst over choosing the blue frock or the black one. They don't have to wear any at all. And they can also bypass the awkward chat of explaining a little bit about themselves so see if they share common ground.   It appears they can go straight to the stripping part of the evening to impress their new playmates. 

Because of course that's what dating is all about.  Women are only ever two glasses of champagne away from wanting to strip for strangers.

I wonder what the boys will be wearing?

Port Kembla steel works, Wollongong NSW

I've always been fascinated by the proximity of this giant industrial steel complex to the beautiful beaches of the Gong. This shot of Port Kembla steel works was taken on a clear day at Coniston beach with reportedly harmless steam coming out. Surfers, however, report that they can sometimes feel grit in their teeth when they surf nearer the facility.

Man made weather...... Bluescope Steel, part of BHP, always assure the Australian public that they operate within environmental guidelines in this country. But  due to BHP's appalling record of international environmental destruction and the fact they wield so much financial and political power in Australia, I don't entirely believe them. I suspect they practically write the EPA guidelines around their emmisions.

On the plus side, If you ever need a location for an

industrial film set, Port Kembla at night is just what you're after.

Going, going, gone.

Some quite interesting things happen before breakfast. Here's this morning's offering. The balloon was one of half a dozen floating across the sky and I'm fairly certain that this one planned to land in Jones Park.  Well, moderately confident it was at least on the list of possible landing spaces. Who am I kidding? They were furiously cranking the gas up as they were descending trying desperately not to land there! 

But there were no audible cries of panic or people taking up religion on the final descent. And a very gentle landing with the tiniest of bumps. Due to the lack of ground kissing and relieved we-almost-died hugs amongst the passengers, I'm guessing it went pretty much as planned.

But it still doesn't make me want to get up in one.

Lulu momentarily interested.  

Can't eat it, don't care.

 And there you have it. Neatly wrapped with Melbourne skyline in the background.
