Man-flu. Shopping. Pay day. Chaos. Braai. Beer*. Friends. Kids. Chaos. Fun. Mess. Tired.
All of which adds up to quota photo time. Here are the kids, earlier today: Three faces; One Smile.
So, to complete the picture (so to speak):
Blog. Drugs. Bed. Sleep.

It’s been a hectic day, followed by a hectic evening. TB has been cultured, stained, examined. Kids have been fed, bathed, bedded. Medical advice has been given over the phone. A toilet has been fixed. Four cups of coffee have gone cold due to sidetracking issues. A tragic waste of caffeine.
We had perfect blue skies all day today, with more of the same promised for tomorrow. The fine weather is only set to break on Wednesday, which is because I play football on Wednesday and the weather gods hate me.
I snapped this (mainly) white chimney in Wynberg this evening as the sun sank slowly behind the mountain. And that’s all you’re getting this evening, I’m afraid. I’m now off to watch some footy until the lack of caffeine kicks in.
10 minutes, tops.
…is that it’s just about impossible for anything to be misinterpreted or misconstrued. This in turn means that no-one gets offended, no names get called and no allegations are levelled. This in turn means that everyone is happy. And that is good.
I don’t usually play around with my photos on the computer “post processing”. As far as I’m concerned, once they’re taken, they’re taken: I don’t have the software, the time or the inclination to mess around with them. That’s something else to learn and I haven’t even learnt how to take photographs yet.
However, I just poked this one of Alex’s Winnie the Pooh sprinkler a bit and I quite like the results.
I think that this is one of those photographs that is best viewed large and you can do that here.
There now. That wasn’t so controversial, now was it?
Today was the first “proper” day of “summer”.
We celebrated it by playing in the pool, something like this (which was taken back in March).
And then we headed out for a romantic dinner. And plenty of red wine.
You are indeed fortunate that I managed to squeeze a blog post in between those two events.
Huge props to England’s cricketers who have timed their demise to perfection so that I can get the end of their Jo’burg ODI out of the way and flick straight to channel 203 for Fiorentina v Liverpool. At one point, it looked as though they were going to allow New Zealand to finish a bit early, but a quick session of skittles (5/27) and everything will be over at 2045.
It would be silly if I didn’t take advantage of their superb organisational skills, so I’ll drop a quick quota photo onto here…
…like this one taken at Morgansvlei, near Tulbagh – and head for the TV.
