Lost coffee /champagne at Marina Mirage!

Very windy today on the Gold Coast & looks a like storm is on its way' 

Who's complaining' Gold Coast has the best weather in Australia' & with only 74 more sleeps till Christmas' are you thinking ''holidays''

 This is a wonderful place to visit' no I don't work for a travel agent or own one (I wish) or get payed to says this or take image's for a travel mag! 

(lol' not a bad idea) My little corner of the world has been my home for a very very long time so I think I qualify to recommend this beautiful place

And 

I know you will LoVe  it too......

We have a wide array of wonderful restaurants' children s them parks, shopping till you drop kind of days.

And lazy carefree sitting at the beautiful Marina Mirage sipping coffee & eating cake, while watching the world go by. The most gorgeous beach in the world (next blog)

 you will end up wanting to live here Just as we did many many years ago! 

So If you are like me & drawn to water this is It!!

 Main Beach a Gorgeous part of Gold Coast.

And I'm sure you will never want to leave......  

I hate litter bugs' I dropped my almost full cup of coffee in the river' hope no one heard my sister swear' ''honestly''  you would of thought it was her coffee, me swear (never) 

 So sorry little fish! 

so after my coffee disaster its only fitting I have a glass of champagne 

' well that's what the sign was telling me'' its not my fault ''really''.....

Pride & Prejudice & the artist.....

Our daughter Tabby Brooke was born with a wonderful Talent' she is an artist 'at a very early age she was full of creativity'very very funny & full of making all sorts of things out of old boxes' today she has had many different jobs her last one being a wonderful tattoo artist, but has decided to follow her passion ''painting'' on canvas Tabby has the magic touch with a paint brush & I think its time for everyone to see her work...........

The detail in the lace is magic! ( No Lace' No Lace Mrs Bennett I beg you!) each & every petal is beautiful'

 (And had  I been a painter I would of been great proficient) joke for Tabby' Pride & Prejudice! think we have both watched this moves a trillion times......

I know I'm Tabby's mum' & one day when she gets the big commissions (Paris here I come) heheee No I think you have to agree she has a special gift.............. 

The boxes in Tabby's childhood' made it easy for Tabby to make a garden rocking chair out of old crates, & the bench behind, was my old coffee table 

Beautiful Magnolia..........by Brooke Tabitha.

More of Tabby Brooke's work soon........ 

Happy Blooming day everyone & thank you for your visit!

GawdBlimey/Tinkerbell/Unicorns & Robin Hood

I was born in Manchester England so I have always wished secretly that I was Tinkerbell wishing I could be in two places at once' I have been in Australia (my loVely home) since a child but never the less I'm a Manchester girl in my heart, been back a few times & always feel I belong its a strange feeling!.....

  we got our  Ethnicity result' mine came back 100 percent European, but the big shock for me was I'm only 31 percent great Britain. ''Gawd Blimey'' I'm Robin hood through & through kind of girl!

 13 percent Europe West'..Germany..Poland.... ( Paris) merci beaucoup....

Our big family has a very very long line of beautiful green/blue eyes maybe this is where they come from

 8 percent Scandinavia....3 percent Finland / northwest Russia

The biggest shock of all was I'm 45 percent Irish' (Luck of the Irish)  that counts for a lot ''shouted my husband' ''cheeky'' hahaaa

 So I like to  decorate mannequins with union jacks now I have to look out for unicorns ........ 

My only dilemma now is I want to go & visit all these wonderful  places'

 I wounder if my beautiful brain can remember all the languages' from long long long ago' if you are a relative reading this do not answer hahaaaa

Thank you for your visit happy day everyone ''CHEERIO''  for now...
