The letter B

This weekend has been brought to you by the letter B.

Beer and Bread (Hungarian fried)

 Boys (well men actually, from France) in Bins

 Bagpipes!  That combo can only happen at Womad and although the weather was challenging due to the fringe of Cyclone Luci it didn't stop the music or the dancing.

 And when I wasn't at Womad it was Baskets at my first weaving weekend.

Sooo last week

Last week the town was full of cars, now we have a street art festival happening.  Where the cars were here and gone the art is hopefully going to be with us for a while making some pretty average walls look really stunning.

Big Boys Toys

and little boys, and quite a few girls too.  AmeriCARna is back in town and having toured the region during the week, today they shut down the CBD for one huge toyfest.

The Good Life

Do you remember the BBC TV show where Tom and Barbara went off the grid in their own backyard?  I've had my own Good Life moment - peas I grew in a basket I made and the peas tasted great too.

Baskets

I've been practicing and my collection is growing; flat, square, shallow, squat and tall(ish).  I'm definitely better at my starting and getting better at my finishing.  Now I'm going to have to start finding homes for them all.

The Plage PM

Friday after work, friends, sunshine, music, glass of wine, comfy beach chair.  Perfect.

The Plage

That's the beach in French.  The Big Wave Cafe on the walkway has given way to Paris Plage - bean bags, canvas chairs, umbrellas and a shipping container that serves great coffee, french pastries and other yummies.

and this is what you get if you order tea: milk in the top cup, teabag in the bottom and hot water in a lovely little old fashioned thermos.  Mix to your own specifications.  Perfect tea every time.
