Man flu

We have a rampant case of man flu in the house. As usual it always occurs on the weekend. So instead of going on one of our weekend excursions we are staying put nursing the patient. That means that I still have not got anything fun to write about, we have not been anywhere interesting but a lot of things has happened in the world.

Sydney has had terrible storms with some serious damage and this weekend could be similar they said, but so far just normal rain. We have also closely followed the last days of the two Aussie drug smugglers who were finally executed a few days ago after having spent almost 10 years in prison.  One of them, Myuran Sukomaran  learned to paint while in prison and has turned out to be a very good artist, specializing in portrait painting. Wish I could paint as well as that.

Let's not forget the horrible earthquake in Nepal, with thousands dead and so many homeless. 

Hi again, dear readers!

The first part of this blog entry was written a week ago and now it is Monday again. Yesterday was Mother's Day so we had a nice visit from our son and also lunch at one of my favorite restaurants in Cronulla called Zimzala. Mother's Day is a rare occasion where I am allowed to put a photo of our son here. He is not very keen to be visible on the internet.


Zimzala is the smaller white building on the far beach. Great location, eh?












Almost nothing shocks anymore. Last Saturday we went into Sydney to see the Rocky Horror Show. I had never seen it but hubby had seen it in the days when it probably was quite outrageous. I think now we are used to seeing everything so therefore it felt a little tamer maybe. The audience were mainly our age and knew most of the texts by heart. When the song Time Warp came on half of them were standing up doing the moves. Very cute, considering they were all 60+.  I was a little disappointed though that no-one was dressed up.

"Let's do the Time Warp, again!"
After the show we had a quick look at the Star Casino and
then dinner down in Darling Harbour.


Time for bed now, so goodnight all, back next week I hope!
