The last couple of weeks have included a lot of my favourite things: friends, bubbles (the drinking kind), shopping and the dogs... I did start a house project but it isn't finished so more on that another time...
Friends...
Last time I wrote we were about to set off to Adelaide for the Australia Day weekend to catch up with Hugo, Amy and their six week old son, Tom, as well as many of the usual Adelaide suspects. A great weekend which (needless to say) included lots of socialising in true Adelaide style. Dave did manage to get a couple of hours to relax at the cricket but Adelaide weekends tend to leave me needing a holiday!
Bubbles...
It seems the Adelaidians are in the know about a rather lovely and faintly pink sparkling wine - Bird in Hand. It was the offering of choice wherever we went and I thoroughly recommend it. Very drinkable indeed! The website blurb is a pretty accurate description and I know Dan Murphy's stock it in Victoria :)
Shopping...
Whilst zipping around a very hot and humid Adelaide, we managed to find our rattan chairs for our veranda at a bargain basement price (a third of the cost we had seen in Victoria.) All we need now are some footstools and a small table to rest a glass of bubbles or a G&T on. Once we have rearranged the veranda furniture I will share some photos.
Dogs...
Still on my drive to use my Canon more often, Charlie and Olive landed roles as my models for the day. Below are a few "portraits" to share with you. I may be biased but Charlie is a very handsome boy and Olive a very pretty girl. They are great models and I could take pictures of them all day...
Have a good week everyone and until next time...
... take care!
