The View From My Window

is somewhat different, but the world seems to be the same. We have moved house and are still trying to settle in (somehow I feel that it will take a while yet) but I am already enjoying the new place.
I will try to get back into the swing of things here and keep posting on a regular basis.


Tune of the Day:  Something For The Girls     by Klopfgeister

Rockford Day was most enjoyable

and we managed to have a great meal from the barbecue, a couple of wonderful bottles of wine and very pleasant company. I'm not exactly sure how the menu fits into my diet, but heck, it's only once a year!

Phew! Dodged a bullet there!?

Cooking Christmas lunch on the bbq might be something normal in Australia and other warmer parts of the world, but I was forced to do it yesterday when our oven went on the blink. Things turned out ok in the end, but I'm sure that it made for a funny sight- at least our guests were understanding.

Thanks to everyone for coming to visit- and thanks for a most enjoyable Christmas lunch!


Tune of the Day:  No Money   by Kings of Leon

I'm going out for another walk around tomorrow

and looking forward to taking some more photos. The invitation to a bbq afterwards is just icing on the cake!
Reading "Low Side Of The Road" at the moment- a Tom Waits biography. A lot going on in that book......


Tune of the Day:   Heartattack and Vine    by Tom Waits

I really wish that I had gone off on holiday with the Mooses!

This has been a dreadful week in the office so far- fingers crossed that we can do something worthwhile tomorrow and Friday to make things look a little better. I have, at least, organised a quick trip to London next week to see a few people...... maybe that will help.
