There's only one thing that could improve on a beautiful oil on canvas pastoral scene of sheep resting on a fall afternoon: hippos! So we added some to this restful landscape by 19th century artist William Luker (1851-1889). Our card is blank inside for your customized message, making it appropriate for all occasions. This card is a Hippo Mojo Exclusive, which means you won't find it elsewhere!

Taking on a lead in a show is daunting enough. Taking on the lead role in Mack and Mabel is even more so,
For Mack it seems like just one monologue after another...oh and did I mention all the songs he has to learn? I think there's 8 in all!!
That's a LOT of stuff to learn. I love doing shows, but I don't think I could ever take on that amount of work for what is, after all, an unpaid amateur endeavour.
So I have every admiration for the people who do. The two main leads in Mack and Mabel, our Annual show this year, are being taken by Shay Griffin as Mack and Jennifer McGann as Mabel.
These are two fine performers in every sense. Still amateurs, still doing it for the sheer joy of stepping out into the bright lights. Just like every member of the cast. But in every other respect..... total pro's.
Like most people, I'm quite happy to take my small share of limelight, sing the odd song, throw out a few lines of dialogue and hopefully get it right. But these guys are something special.
Hats off to them. It's a pleasure to watch them work :-)

Obverse design included the sailing ship HMS Supply anchored at Sydney Cove with the early colony in the background. Above are people who symbolise all who have contributed to Australia, from left the early settlers to right the modern working man.
Reverse includes portraits of the aboriginal population, the main picture is a young native youth with ceremonial paint, and in the background is a Morning Star Pole, other Aboriginal artworks commissioned by the Bank and a human like figure from Dreamtime.

I'm leaving tomorrow for Madison, WI. I think some people call it the "Paris of central Wisconsin". I'm presenting at this year's Canoecopia. I love the event and I'm so glad I can contribute this year. The problem is that with all that's going on, I really didn't have any time to fix my presentation slides that suddenly crashed and wasn't recoverable. I had to rebuild it, which was so time consuming, but even more stressful.

"Three years ago, though, the Roadster was joined by the more sophisticated and powerful V8-engined, coupe-bodied GT, itself the result of a five-year development. With its Elise-style epoxy-bonded aluminium tub, glassfibre reinforced composite bodywork and 4.8-litre BMW V8, the GT is an altogether more potent proposition that requires its 362bhp to propel just 1240kg. The upshot is a supercar-nudging power-to-weight ratio of 297bhp/ton..." - Evo magazine
Founded by brothers Martin and Friedhelm Wiesmann in Dülmen, Germany in 1988, Wiesmann GmbH specialised in the production of hand-built, custom-made, high-performance coupés and convertibles. Production commenced in 1993 with the MF30, and throughout its life Wiesmann relied exclusively on BMW power plants, at its peak producing around 180 cars per year. The company adopted a gecko logo because, or so they claimed, its cars 'stick like geckos to a wall'. Distinctly retro (note the 'C-Type Jaguar' radiator grille) and somewhat reminiscent of some Zagato designs from the 1950s and 1960s, Wiesmann's cars kept basically the same body style throughout production.
Wiesmann's first model was the MF30 coupé and convertible, which was powered by a BMW 3.0-litre inline six. It was superseded by the MF3, similarly BMW-powered but using the more powerful S54 3.2-litre six from the E45 M3 sports saloon.
In 2003 Wiesmann introduced the GT MF4, a closed coupé intended for long-distance touring, which was followed in 2009 by a roadster version. The MF4 chassis was aluminium and the bodywork glassfibre composite, while suspension was independent all round by means of double transverse links. Power came from BMW's 4.8-litre normally aspirated N62 V8 producing 367bhp, or the smaller (4.0-litre) but more powerful (420bhp) S65B40 unit in the MF4-S roadster. The standard transmission was the six-speed sports automatic. Wiesmann claimed performance figures of 0-100kmh (62mph) of 4.6 seconds and a top speed of 291km/h (181mph). Evo reckoned the Wiesmann GT MF4 "a starkly original take on big-cube performance thuggery. It should be intimidating but it's actually fabulously accessible".
Being essentially a low-volume hand-crafted operation, Wiesmann was able to offer its customers bespoke specifications and guaranteed exclusivity. This service applied particularly to the interior, where a range of handmade leather designs was on offer, catering for all possible tastes. Unusually, the GT MF4's stacked array of instruments was grouped in the middle of the dashboard rather than behind the steering wheel, while knobs, switches and instrument bezels were all chromed, reinforcing the retro look.
Sadly, and like so many independent sports car constructors down the years, Wiesmann eventually succumbed to adverse economic factors beyond its control and filed for bankruptcy in 2013.
Sold new on 23rd November 2006, the example we offer has the normally aspirated 4.8-litre BMW V8 producing 367bhp, and the rare manual transmission. According to Wiesmann, only 118 cars with this engine and manual transmission were delivered in three years. Our car has covered only 26,550 km and is said to be in excellent condition and accident-free.
This car features the rare, if not unique, colour scheme of Aston Martin Green, in two-layer metallic paint, with brown leather and Alcantara interior and contrasting stitching. It also has two protective strips in stainless steel on each side to protect the leather when getting in and out (custom-made for this car).
The service book is complete, and all necessary service work has been carried out according to factory instructions. The 'MoT' is valid until 28.03.2024. The Wiesmann is currently registered in Luxembourg, and a letter (in German) from the previous owner is included in the sale together with numerous invoices. The German Fahrzeugbrief is still available should the car be sold outside of Luxembourg. A wonderful opportunity to own one of these rare and highly sought-after German sports cars.

Che graces the Cuban 3 peso note. This is the “Moneda Naciónal”, the local currency, as opposed to Convertible Pesos for foreigners.
When you're playing the piano, those little symbols like arrows are there to remind you to take notice of them, and play those notes hard enough to emphasize them.
You can tell whether a person is seeing these tiny musical symbols important or not when they're playing.
This principle is easy -
If you care about them, you'll take them into serious consideration, and try to perform them well ;
If you don't care about them, well, then I don't think you'll spend any of your thoughts on them. You may just see them as some meaningless stuffs.
That's what "importance" means.
Then do you know how important you are to me?
I'm sure a nice nut, er, umm...note will wipe the pout right off her face.
