A strange hairy little beetle paid us a visit at school today. (not a very keen model though!)
Late this afternoon we had thunder and lightning and then 15mm of rain paired with heavy wind.
It is still windy but the rain has stopped. More rain is forecast for this week.

November 18 - 20, 2011

Catching up after 3 days away.
We travelled South on Friday to help pack up the contents of Aunty Kay's house.
It poured with rain ALL weekend. 

The persistant rain and being busy certainly did not supply many photo opportunities

My cousin has exactly the same camera as mine. She complained that she can't take macro shots & we compared settings. After I had adjusted the settings and gave her a few pointers, she took this photo of her ring and was very pleased with the result. We realised later that it was actually my camera that she had used!  That still makes it "at maggiez lenz", right???   

An early morning shot of a young bird on an old wall.
It was still pouring with rain and this photo was taken through the window from within the house. 

Not a word of truth on Lynette's cute t-shirt!
 She cooked a scrumptious family meal - enjoyed by all!
