We went to Castlemaine yesterday for a HUGE auction and clearing sale. We sort of underestimated how long it would take to get to the bits we were interested in (well that Si wanted to bid for anyway) and how cranky our children would be. So it was a looooong long day in more ways […]

Friends Far and Near
It’s been a normal week really around here… busy but not busy. I just bought home two very cranky and whiney girls. As we got to the front gate they were both crying for Daddy who had already left for work and I figured it was going to be a long few hours between then […]
