Most of the beach boxes on Melbourne's Brighton Beach have colourful artwork, but not many feature kangaroos.
Early 70s Aussie built VH Valiant Charger. I remember when these came out as a young kid and I still love em. I stared at this one for ages. Seen at the Drysdale Classic Car Show last week.

Jasper listens intensely when we talk to him, really perking up when he hears key words like "treat", "dinner", "play", "present", "I've got to go make a sandwich for tomorrow", that sort of thing. A quick portrait, shot blind as Jasper's grandma spoke to him
Raided the archives for this. Spotted this barge on the Gloucester & Sharpness canal back in the summer, flying the Australian flag. Looked strangely out of place. I know a couple of my contacts who will appreciate this!
As one of Jasper's humans I know I'm biased in thinking that he's a good looking boy, But the other night on our walk I got a couple reaffirmations. The first was a little boy, maybe 3 years old, who stood in his driveway pointing straight-armed at Jasper and saying, "Doggy!". His mother says, "Yes, that's a BIG doggy". The kid replies, "but he's still cute". Then a little further down the street a woman was driving by. She slows, rolls down her window and says, "That's a really good looking dog" I smile and nod. She says, "REALLY good looking". Smiling again, I say, "Thank you" as if if I had something to do with his good looks. While I'm also blue merle, we do come from different gene pools 😉
It has been raining for a few days and forecast for more rain most of the coming week. What better time for an Aussie Mudbowl rematch!!! Besides, gotta burn that energy off rain or shine!!!
(FYI, everybody won!!! ...except Mom & Dad and the towels)

Royal Australian Air Force C130H A97-012 holding for departure from Kinloss, Oct 1992. This was leaving day after the 1992 Fincastle Trophy, got two Aussie P3s and a Kiwi P3 that day as well but missed the white Kiwi Herk which left earlier.
Meet Yobbo. He was the gift for exhibitors at this years Brickvention. And designed by yours truly.
And a big thankyou to the BV team, especially Jason, for helping get and sort the parts, organising printing, and just generally make it happen.
'Cos organising 400 custom Brickheads as gifts: That takes a team.
Tomorrow 26/1/2012 is Australia Day! The official National Day for Australia.
So I wanted to post something Aussie.
Vegemite is a dark brown Australian food paste made from yeast extract. It is a nutritious product very rich in Vit B. The most popular way to eat it is to spread it on toast.
It's an acquired taste, you either love it or hate it.
Vegemite is uniquely Australian and a fair dinkum Aussie icon with 90% of Aussies having a jar in their pantry!
Day welcomes night as the sunsets at Talaroo Hot Springs, a tropical oasis, in the outback of far north Queensland, Australia. Seen on travels in 2009.

At Santa Barbara Orchid Estate. Thirteen of us lifted it onto the truck. Once it got to the showgrounds it was moved with a forklift. Allan Dougherty, in the green shirt, was the photographer (well, it was his camera anyway). The orchid was probably about 30 years old.
Kingston Foreshore, Canberra. A rare sunny day, free of smoke from the bushfires raging in NSW and Victoria.
In the Queensland mode with nice architectural timber detailing typical of housing in this state in the late 19th and early 20th centuries .

We came accross this clothes line about 10 kilometers south of Andamooka. Some one had fixed it to one of the fence posts and hung different items of clothing on it. This is out in the middle of nowhere alongside of the road. On the other side of the road is a dog and his bone and a bed all made up with dolls in it.
