Yep. Sempiak villas. Rox and Lalu are great hosts.

The weather has just turned here in Brisbane and it's time for me to find a light jumper. Seeing your picture with the log-splitter in action illicits an evocation that is romantic bit far from my reality... Lovely composition!

Beautiful setting

With regard to temperature. As a former resident of Qld. and various other parts, I can honestly say that you get acclimatised to wherever you're at. It was certainly cool here yesterday morning when I went out the door but it was also sunny. I put my usual farm gear on and went and did my thing (picking up the logs in the front paddock and log splitting), and didn't take any more notice. Finished off at lunchtime and got in the car to drive into town at 1.15pm. I was surprised to look at the in dash thermometer as I was driving away (its quite accurate...its German!) and see it was registering a nice 3.5 degrees. In town it was anywhere between 7.5 and 9.5 (heatwave :stir). When I left for town this morning (7.20am) it was 2 degrees in the garage, dropping to zero outside, and then it dropped all the way down to minus 5 and then back to minus 3.5 in town at 7.55. And when I pulled up at the office at 10.00am, a positive 3.5 degrees! If its a nice day, its all irrelevant....only relevant when the low temp is accompanied by winds or is horribly grey and overcast.

Photo taken last year this time. The weather was sunny!!! Drive through Maccas with my son (I haven't yet mentioned I've got a 12 year old from a past life). He of course ordered.

The joys of L/H drive eh? How long did it take for the macca's maid to get her head around the "why is he driving at that age?" :laugh: (Of course he paid as well. :D)

The maid couldn't hear him before I turned the motor off. It's a bit of a thumper.

That shape Mustang was easy on the eye - lovely design I did my apprenticeship in a Ford dealership and worked on many mustangs and GTHOs ect Did you know that the Falcons were based on the Mustang floor plan KK

FreshCoffee2 · July 2015

Well for starters I didnt know that....very interesting ! In looking at the photo I zeroed straight in on a) the quarter vent and b) the window winder. I am not a fan of air cond in the car until the ambient becomes unbearable, and I have always bemoaned the phasing out of quartervents. Except for small inconveniences like when the vent syphons a bee or wasp into your vehicle or up your arm or neck, I reckon they are the greatest thing since sliced bread. A few weeks ago I was in a vehicle and couldnt work out how to open the window....was looking for the toggle to activate the electric winder....bad move. It was a MANUALLY operated window. How far have we come.....or should I say, where have we gone? ;D And a chrome winder at that....love it.

thats right KK. many parts are interchangeable between falcons and mustangs. I rebuilt/restored mine from the ground up. Fully stripped down. Every nut and bolt replated. It's a factory A code GT with 4 on the floor. Factory AC car. The only thing I changed was the colour (wife's request) and the motor is a 347 stroker instead of the bog standard 289. Here's a link to the album where I've placed heaps of pics of the restoration/build: http://s154.photobucket.com/user/levo_madlak/library/Mustang GT 1965?sort=3&page=1

thanks FC. Just wish the weather was better to drive it more often. I've driven it in the rain a few times but then I spend hours cleaning it and that includes jacking it up and cleaning the undercarriage.

Brett H · July 2015

I've never been a car enthusiast but I certainly see the appeal! What a stunning auto... It's a work of art!

cute photo CB. weather looks great too. We managed to go for a walk today around the block with the little one and our two staffs. They walked behind the pram so gently. They know there's a new pack leader in the house.

Cuir Beluga · July 2015

I can just imagine your pooches trotting dutifully behind the pram ^-^.

GeekKopi · July 2015

And here's my baby girl. One month old already and I have 30 new grey hairs to match.

Cuir Beluga · July 2015

She is beautiful Geek, she has changed so much already

.

GaryatGala · July 2015

You can always dye your hair...[emoji6] Her expression is priceless.

GeekKopi · July 2015

Thanks guys. She's my world!

Some likely characters found round the traps yesterday arvo. Hare and roo are not really welcome, but hard to shift. The roo is a lone buck that has taken up residence in the paddock. Down the back there are hundreds but they move around. Hard to get close so both photos just lucky strikes especially the hare. Photo back across dam pretty much taken into the sun...

GaryatGala · September 2015

Great pics FC.[emoji106] The chooks, are they for eggs? Would be great if can see a pic of the chook house.

Brett H · September 2015

Beautiful acreage you have there FC!

FreshCoffee2 · September 2015

Thanks guys we love it. The chickens, ducks & fowl are for both eggs and meat. The guinea fowl also for tiger snake repelling, and I love their call. Full of character.

Brett H · September 2015

Magnificent!

I found myself on a short trip to Nairobi, and played coffee tourist for a day or two. Managed to visit a small plantation & also the coffee exchange. Here's a few Iphone pics from my travels. Tough times for the farmers with prices so low...
