Seen adorning the front garden of a house in Droop Street, Footscray. Any ideas, anybody? (Thanks for use of the camera, Justine)

Here is the contents of my wallet
I got given a new wallet on Monday, so a couple of days ago I transferred the contents of my old, decrepit one into it. On the way across, I took this picture. Feel free to post a picture of the contents of your wallet or purse… Link in the Trackbacks or comments. Move your ... [More]

Here is my toaster
And now for a toast. (Tony and Rae are certainly deserving of one, this weekend.) This is my Sunbeam toaster, still going strong after over a decade of toastie goodness. Happily handles crumpets and those big slices of bread from the delicious Vienna loaves I sometimes get at the bakery down the road. Yum. Feel ... [More]

Here is my kitchen clock
Two days late, but I thought I could knock off two birds with one stone. Tony posted an artefact from the defunct Daimaru, and issued a challenge: find something from a now-gone department store. Well, here is my kitchen clock. It came from a shop that was somewhere inside the beautiful art deco Capitol building ... [More]

Here is my post box
Here we go, celebrating the mundane yet again… here is my local post box, a couple of streets away. And you get a stop sign and a fire hydrant thrown in for no extra cost — how good is that?! Feel free to post a picture of your local post box… Link in the Trackbacks ... [More]
It started with an observation from one or both of my offspring: “I’ve never been on a sprinter train!” So I thought ah, one more week of holidays for me, I’ll take them on the train down to Geelong. They’re well-versed with travel on the suburban trains (it’s all part of my “Dad’s taxi”-avoidance scheme ... [More]

Here is my dish rack
The other week I was reading some bit of junk mail that came through my post box, and noting that dish washers aren’t quite as exhorbitantly priced as I thought they might be. When I eventually own a house, I’ll be sure to get one, just to save the dish washing effort. But in the ... [More]
