domestic concerns


So we had a bit of excitement on our way back from Alice last evening – lightning, rain on the horizon, and a spectacular sunset. Then today there were clouds (!!!) and the definite sniff of rain…

The real focus of our excitement though should, as always, be focussed on meat. Specifically, in this case, bacon. I’m making my own.
Here’s a photo of progress day one -


Stay tuned throughout the week for daily updates. Should be ready for eating on Friday.

Good Friday indeed. Hot cross bacon. Yummo.

Next week, pate.

I’m hoping for sausages and perhaps salami come winter. It’s too warm here at the moment to be able to hang them at all.

And, after a bit of technical wizadry, here are some more Antarctic photos.


Thats the boat, with the little wee zodiacs alondside.

Penguins, with a whale backbone.

A touching family scene. Check out the nests made of stones. They spend their whole time stealing other penguins stones and defending their own little pile. Funny.

Right, well i had intended on a few more than that, but The Glitches have returned. Oh well. Better check the bacon.

ta ra.
