Happy Mothers Day in the UK

We celebrate Mothers Day in Australia (second Sunday in May) at a different time to the UK (today). However as I hadn't posted for a few days I thought I would post a photo that Mr Ed took of Little Miss A and I the other week which I love.

The little Zumi 2 camera has a lot of quirks and a few interesting settings like the one used in this shot - 'Old_2' and it can't really cope with direct sunlight which has created this great effect.

I'm a lucky Mum.

By the way, Little Miss A's actual name is Amelie...yes, yes after the film. As soon as I saw that film I just knew if I was ever to have children and a girl I would name her Amelie.

It's been a while

It has been a while since I last posted. I guess I have just been busy: working, holding a stall at a baby and kids market selling Little Miss A's old clothes (made a tidy little sum) and had a day off with Mr Ed last Friday which was lovley.

Here are a few photos of the city we've chosen to call home.



This is the view of Melbourne from our High Street. I love this view from the hill, it's not a huge city but it is just big enough to entertain us with art, food, markets, music and parks.



While standing at the tram stop I noticed my nail polish was the same colour as the rubbish bin - rubbish bin red!



The local town hall and a tram - my favourite form of transport (until I get my bike serviced on the weekend).



So last Friday Mr Ed and I had a day together, eating, shopping and enjoying Melbourne. We had a lovely meal and ended the day at an Italian cafe and enjoyed an italian hot chocolate before we picked up Little Miss A from playgroup.



What a wonderfully busy time I've had this past week.



All of these photos were taken with my new Zumi 2 camera. It is like my old Lomo but digital!!! I'm still getting used to its quirky features.

I hope you have had a lovely week
