You can get into a real philosophical discussion about it… are people lucky or do you make your own luck? Hmmmm…… Like most things in life, I reckon that there’s little black and white in making your own luck, it’s all shades of grey. Except when it comes to raffles. That’s just luck. So long […]
Marvellous place! A water play playground, fine for a very sunny winter’s day and just sublime in summer. My family has been having fun at Putney Park for over a decade…..mostly nude! The humungous slide is a big draw for the older children, little ones need to sit on mum or dad’s lap though, it’s […]
Because I did panic this week. Which wasn’t the way it was supposed to be. The children all went off to school joyfully, into Years 10, 8 and 1 respectively. The house was deadly quiet but the piles of things to do were deadly high. I sat down at my desk and looked at the […]
How much fun has my family had at Northbridge Baths over the years??? It’s a great little spot, much loved by local families and it was a home away from home for us for the years we lived close by. We’ve moved further away now, but we’ll still visit over this summer. Now that my […]

Bethany and I are thrilled! We have perfected this healthy chocolate cake and the kids love it. And it has NOTHING nasty in it, nothing at all. I had bought some coconut flour, it took me ages to pluck up the courage to start using it. And it took a few goes to get this […]
Don’t you just love that park bench? I once gave it a post all of its own. But today it’s just a teaser for the many joys of Shelley Park playground in Cronulla. In the winter it’s well worth a visit just for the playground, in summer there’s the lovely beach, the rock pool and […]

The playground at Blaxland Riverside Park is pretty blooming spectacular. If you ignore the fact that there’s very little shade, it’s really got the lot.
