The Pig
by Roald Dahl

In England once there lived a big
And wonderfully clever pig.
To everybody it was plain
That Piggy had a massive brain.
He worked out sums inside his head,
There was no book he hadn't read.
He knew what made an airplane fly,
He knew how engines worked and why.
He knew all this, but in the end
One question drove him round the bend:
He simply couldn't puzzle out
What LIFE was really all about.
What was the reason for his birth?
Why was he placed upon this earth?
His giant brain went round and round.
Alas, no answer could be found.
Till suddenly one wondrous night.
All in a flash he saw the light.
He jumped up like a ballet dancer
And yelled, "By gum, I've got the answer!"
"They want my bacon slice by slice
"To sell at a tremendous price!
"They want my tender juicy chops
"To put in all the butcher's shops!
"They want my pork to make a roast
"And that's the part'll cost the most!
"They want my sausages in strings!
"They even want my chitterlings!
"The butcher's shop! The carving knife!
"That is the reason for my life!"
Such thoughts as these are not designed
To give a pig great piece of mind.
Next morning, in comes Farmer Bland,
A pail of pigswill in his hand,
And piggy with a mighty roar,
Bashes the farmer to the floor…
Now comes the rather grizzly bit
So let's not make too much of it,
Except that you must understand
That Piggy did eat Farmer Bland,
He ate him up from head to toe,
Chewing the pieces nice and slow.
It took an hour to reach the feet,
Because there was so much to eat,
And when he finished, Pig, of course,
Felt absolutely no remorse.
Slowly he scratched his brainy head
And with a little smile he said,
"I had a fairly powerful hunch
"That he might have me for his lunch.
"And so, because I feared the worst,
"I thought I'd better eat him first."

Winters Day

Who goes to the beach on a winters day?

Only to just smell the sea and feel the rain.

Two dads, two mums, three adorable kids

Fishing rods, BBQ, and a shade tent.

A beach to ourselves to get blown away

We ate, got wet, caught weeds and played.

So who goes to the beach on a winters day?

WE DO THAT'S WHO!

Colourful Weekend

Wishing everyone a colourful weekend!

Robe not famous for Robes

Last Friday evening Daddy Tim decided when he came home from work that we would take our new car for its first adventure, Robe about a 4hour drive away was to be our destination not knowing much about Robe except for 4wd tracks the long drive was quite boring but we made it and lucky we had booked a cabin at the fabulous lakeside caravan park for the weather wasn't the best, Penola not far away was taken out by a tornado during the Saturday night wild weather. Our days were quite sunny, Saturday was spent driving around bumpy tracks down sand hills and up extremely hard ones. we got super excited as to what our new little car achieved, we made the mistake of turning around before checking on part of the beach and dug a few holes but in the blink of an eye we escaped that mess and decided that might be enough for one day and lunch was in order....

Pictures to come soon

Precious Lovely

There is many good things in life when we really stop and look. I'm enjoying a hot chocolate while it rains a flood outside my window a little happiness in my day while Yasmine enjoys the luxury of day time naps. But deep down its sometimes the good things in life that we take for granted that will really pull us through the tough days of daily life.

One of them is definitely family and when that love is nurtured like a mother to her child the rewards are far greater than anything you could possibly buy or a new found happiness (like that deep fried mars bar i discovered my local chip shop now does and if you knew just how close that chip shop is to my house its awfully tempting)  but doesnt last for long, happiness which has the possibility to fizz out. I know i really treasure those times spent with family especailly when i live so far from so many of them.
 To my sister in law Katie family is something she loves also and is important and special to her. With her blog Precious Lovely a space where life's precious gifts and simple pleasures that she enjoys and sees in the things around her are documented in a wonderful way to share with us all.

Featuring Yasmine a joy to her , plus more of her family, friends and past times.

Blooms Galore

The scent of spring is in the air when my daffodils, camellias and tulips start to come to life.So much joy does a little bit of colour in the garden bring and the prospect of brighter warmer days on the way.

Flowers aren't the only thing were expecting this spring  Yasmine is nearly 4months and we've been experiencing more tears of late because gums are sore and teeth are on the way!Yasmine has grown out of  000 suits shes about 6kgs and just over 60cm long so shes now in 00's, also she's such a wiggler she now magically moves herself round the room if left on the floor, she loves to try sitting by herself though that gets abit exhausting and we've started trying solids with sweet potato.With more awake time, shes a darling when shes asleep and a delight when shes awake trying to have a conversation with you.
