circa 1974 Exploring Wellington Weir just outside of Collie.

circa 1976 I'll have to check with Dad what car this was. Probably the second Toyota Corona.

circa 1985 So much hair!

9 January 1999 On my wedding day with my Bridesmaid, Tara. This is in our bedroom back at the Flat (15/26 Warleigh Grove, Brighton VIC 3186). Caractitures are actual Wegs of Rawdy and myself.

circa April 2002 Renovating our newly purchased unit in Asling St Brighton. The kitchen going in was pretty exciting after many months of demolition.

12 October 2004 Here I am holding one of our first Scottish Folds, Chester.

24 March 2007 My 40th Birthday. We figured 4 plus 0 is 4 so we decided on an 'I'm turning four' theme. Behind me is Keith and Betty and in the background is Shawn Richards.

25 December 2007 The Nutting and Wines clans. One of many Christmas lunches/dinners we catered for them.

15 February 2009 Our beloved Granny. 1958 VW Microbus 'Splitty'. Shot was taken at Mordialloc pier.

12 September 2009 We hired a house with our neighbours and a friend for a weekend away. It was a pet friendly place so theri beautiful Washington (on the floow) was with us as were Chester and Merlin, our Scottish Folds. At the table is Faye and Cathy.

25 October 2009 Dad, myself, Christine and her Mum, Beth.

15 November 2009 Doing my bit for our Splitty Calendar enterprise. As well as chief of sales, I made many a Splitty car (pictured on the desk). This would be at the annual Day of the Volkswagen show.

28 December 2009 Our first day home with Max. He had a few knots. We adopted Max from a good friend, Antoinette, who passed away.

4 June 2015 We got to me The Amazing Randi tonight. I was lucky enough to score a hug but dopey husband was too slow with a photo of that.

14 March 2017 A new addition to our family, Hobbes, forgot to stick his tongue in.

26 March 2017 I got a bath for my birthday!

30 May 2017 Cruising around in Rawdyn's Dad's old truck with Hobbes in his usual place sitting on my shoulder.

29 September 2017 Dad bought me a new bike! How old am I?

8 March 2022 One week today until the big trip back to W.A.

14 March 2022 The container is packed and the house is empty. Tomorrow our roadtrip to W.A. begins.

15 March 2022 Let the adventure of two humans and three cats begin. Today we leave for Adelaide. Monet is sitting on my lap and Hobbes has perched on my shoulder. I'm set for the next eight hours.

15 March 2022 When you do a road trip in Australia you just have to stop and take pictures of the 'big things' Today we saw the Giant Koala at Dadswell's Bridge S.A. https://visithorsham.com.au/activities/giant-koala/

15 March 2022 This is Izzy's first big road trip, I think she's asking us what on earth are we doing, and why did Hobbes just get into MY box!

16 March 2022 Day two across Australia brought us to 'big things' number two, the Big Galah at Kimba S.A. https://www.kimba.sa.gov.au/tourist-information/attractions2/thebiggalah Hobbes was also pretty keen, while Monet slept through the photo op.

16 March 2022 Overall Izzy was very happy travelling in her kitty box in the boot where she could keep an eye on us or ignore us. She only got upset when a packet of Snakes Alive slipped on dunked her on the head one day and a box of travel supplies another day. Both times she meowed her displeasure at us loudly.

16 March 2022 Kimba S.A. marks the halfway point across Australia between Sydney on the east coast and Perth in the West coast. We saw some of Kimba's famous painted grain silos and stopped at the Big Galah. https://www.eyrepeninsula.com/kimba

16 March 2022 Out of the car and a chance for us all to relax in Ceduna. In this photo Rawdyn is probably working rather than relaxing, Izzy is pretending it's all not happening, Hobbes and Monet are totally chill and I've got my feet up.

17 March 2022 Today we hit the long straight roads across the Nullabor Plain. This is Garfield taking in the view. I've had him since I was 12 and he has been on every trip with me in Australia and overseas.

17 March 2022 An only in Australia moment, where else would you get a warning for camels, wombats and kangaroos crossing. Thankfully we didn't see any.

17 March 2022 Our VW Golf outside the old Nullabor Roadhouse. We filled up at the new Nullabor Roadhouse just next door. The weather here was perfect, clear blue skies, crisp dry air and not too hot.

17 March 2022 Just off the Eyre Highway was this magnificent view of the Great Australian Bight.
