The Angel Bruce! Koalas are actually quite surly critters that pee on you, to quote former Prime Minister Paul Keating. The view from the top of my mother's apartment building. Tom Jones and the Pussycats - a free show at the Smithfield RSL together with 300 seniors. It was actually quite entertaining - and we're all headed in one direction. This is watcha do with yor muvver! Tom Jones and the Pussycats ... the tribute artist is holding one of several paris of underpants - in a very wide range of sizes - offered by brazen ladies in the audience. A stroll down memory lane - this is where I spent my childhood from ages 5 to 11 - in Ryde. The house use to be white. It had grass where there are brick walls. There is a fence to block the roaring traffic.

Me and my mother and the house we grew up in. This iwas a massive great pine tree of sorts. It seems to have becme thin and spindly. Willandra St Ryde - so many memories as we drive away. ... and now cruising down Belmore Road, where I once walked to and from primary school every day. Meadowbank Public school, where I spent Kindy to Grade 5. Brick replaces the formerly clapboard buildings.

The old buildings are still there! But tarted up considerably. Redleaf pool, a few steps from my flat in Sydney. That's a shark net under there! Looking back at the Woolhara library from the Readleaf Pool jetty. The beach is a popular gayboy hangout. Nice eye candy! A stunning tree. A view of that very interesting tree again.
