Yes! School holidays are with us, and after not having a getaway since early in the year, we're out and about, and taking a "camping" trip up the coast to get a break. We're all kitted up with

It's been a bit of a lean year in terms of my silver stacking, with only a few new additions to my collection, so I thought I'd look back at a few of my favourites I have been fortunate enough to have

we had a rare opportunity to goniut midweek with no kids to have to worry about. School holidays mean that we can palm junior off to friends for a sleepover (he wanted to go... ) and big junior went tobstay

It's been way too long between doses. With the events of the world this year playing havoc everywhere, the Perth Mint had halted production of many of its coins and bars, and the 10oz Silver Kookaburra

Well it's been about a month since my last post. Things have been flat out recently, and I've just got busier on a project which has the potential to be huge... but I can't say any more on that one just

This is the first time since Maggie joined our family 5 years ago that she has come into our living room, and settled down next to us on the couch. Maggie is usually very reclusive, living in the shadows

Chill out through the trouble.

We've had our first wintry blast, with quite ferocious winds and rain sweeping across the coast. The temperature has gone down, probably not quite enough for lighting a fire, but.... fire!! Who doesn't

Well that went smoothly! Probably because I slept through it all, and woke up to a Hive of activity! It brought a big smile to my face to see a lot of the front ends already have an interface into Hive.

No, not the Grim Reaper! After getting myself a Carolina Reaper plant from my local gardening store late last year, I've been watering, feeding and waiting for it to grow me a chilli. At the beginning

Our cats have the best life! They have food and watet on demand. They come and go as they please, although we do try to keep them indoors because of other feral cats, and neighbours who don't like cats

We have had a coup, a hostile takeover, an unwelcome invasion by Tron, or whatever you want to call it. The Steem blockchain is being held hostage by a minority put in place by a flawed witness voting

Fear, and greed can make people do the strangest things. We've experience a bit of that right here in the Steem blockchain over the last few days. Here in Australia, the fear of the Caronavirus has driven
