In the Garden when it is cold.

I DON'T LIKE SITTING HERE.

Shouting out "Granny I don't like sitting here with these flowers".

Granny, "Don't you like those fallen camellias Wilbur"

"Of course I like pretty camellias, it is not the flowers."

Granny, " Well don't grizzle, I'm busy sweeping"

"Granny I hate sitting here, please don't make me sit here."

Granny ," Well tell me why you don't like it up there with the flowers."

" You wouldn't like it either Granny, I'm telling you, you would hate it."

Granny, "Why, Wilbur why."

"Because this piece of marble is freezing my butt off."

Granny, "I'm so sorry Wilbur, I forgot it is only 2.4 deg. You would have a very cold bottom.

Here hop down and run around to warm up."

 Well, I was far too cold to run around to warm up, so I  covered myself with all the leaves that Granny had raked up. It was still cold, but not as freeeeezing as that marble table.

"I bet you can't guess what I am sitting on? ARRRRRRH, Beautiful."
Have you guessed?
Two warm wheat bags. With Granny's fur rose collar around my neck.. If I were a cat I would Purrrrrr.

This is just some of the Camellias that grow in the winter in our garden. 

The problem is they do drop there flowers, and Granny hates putting them in the compost because they are pretty. 

This is a photo of down the back. It is a little protected area for plants that love the shade.

It is Granny here. Some people wanted to see the steam punk jewellery that we made last weekend.

Well I'm warning you, I am NO photographer. The fish, Turtle and sea horse were covered in Mica powder, which is very shiny and iridescent. So I took lousy pictures. You will just have to imagine.

These were made from books by Christi Friesen from America.

Christi is a wonderful sculptor and makes the most amazing things. She came out to Australia in the Summer and I was lucky enough to go to one of her work shops. It is such a pity that I can not do the just-is with the camera. I made them into broaches.

"Hi Mates, you know I can't make a post with out ,you know who, piping in.

Well I just want to tell you, that Honey that has been warmed, and Peanut butter on toast, with piping hot chocolate is on the menu for tea."

"See you all next week when my you know what, is warmer."
