Charlie's WorldFog and Mist and updates
Posted on July 19, 2020
So it’s been very wet here recently. Deluges of biblical proportions kind of wet.
It’s good, the dams need it – although very wet winters do create bushfire fuel problems for the summer.
Anyways, it was very foggy/misty here after a very wet week and I decided to get off my fat arse and go take some pictures up by the local dam. Read More
England Summer 2013, Final Part – Minnis Bay
Posted on September 14, 2013
My last day with the kids was lovely and warm. We had wanted to go fossil hunting, but we were woefully unprepared for that (I didn’t research enough beforehand) and the organised tours were suspended because the main guy had hurt himself and wasn’t up to clambering about over rocks to show eager children where they could find fossils.
Instead, we just kinda headed for the north Kent coast and winged it. Read More
England Summer 2013, Part 7 – if you go down to the woods today
Posted on September 10, 2013
So, you’ll all no doubt be aware that the woods are my absolute favourite place in the world. I grew up a few minutes walk from there and spent all my free time exploring as soon as I was allowed to go on my own.
So when I go back to see the kids, we have to go there. It’s the law.
And besides, what better for kids than to get outside, go for a long walk, explore, learn some history, learn about trees and animals that live there, hear some stories from my own childhood and generally, well, just be kids, something that is increasingly hard these days.
I love that I can share just a little bit of what I find special and I love that they find it special too.
Snippets from the weekend

Greetings, fellow humans – hope things are well with you all!
So, what’s been happening in sunny Perth? Actually, not so much in the way of sun – we’ve had a ton of rain lately, which timed itself perfectly with some closures of the train line in the city. Guess who was on the bike like a drowned rat for most of the time?
This weekend, however, the sun came out and it was lovely and warm. T-shirt weather in winter – dear Northern hemisphere dwellers, don’t get too jealous :p So not to waste the opportunity, Jay and I headed out to Fremantle to wander about, buy a few things and get some tasty lunch.
