The Floor After.

The finished job. The two gentleman that I could not communicate with appear to have done a reasonable job.

PENALTIES APPLY.

Today I went on one of my semi regular trips to the aerodrome. For the first time ever I parked on the side of the freeway and waited for the call. Fortunately I was not penalised or anal-ysed.

Ansonia Kitchen Clock.

Another wedding present. This clock was made in the 1910s or 1920s by the Ansonia Clock Co., New York City, United States of America. It worked quite well until at 029hrs I decided I didn't like the way it chimed. I'm sure it will continue to work well in its new home.

The Floor Before.

These boards are in the new Thomas abode. I pulled some nails and staples out of them in preparation for polishing.

Mardi Gras.

Today is Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday, Shrove Tuesday, Pancake Day). I got these beads when I was at Mardi Gras in New Orleans in 2002. They are a constant reminder of some of the loosest days I have ever lived.

166 Lygon Street North, Brunswick.

A Scotty Dog.

I do not know what this is called.

Minimal research says it may be a boutonnière, whatever it is I wore it on my jacket in the wedding yesterday and it was still attached to the suit when I was putting it away.

The Wedding.

Mike and Paige became Mr and Mrs Thomas today. Excellent day had by all. Hoorah.

Dom Pérignon, Vintage 2000

A wedding present to Mile and Ragge. Not from me. Obviously.

For the record I took this photo very early on Friday morning and the shoe was Thursday, so I'm all squared away.

Eyes, Dunlop Volley Sport

And again.

Through a dirty windscreen on a cloudy day on the way to Ballarat.

1955 FJ Holden - Chiltern Cream

I can't resist taking photos of the FJ now that it is finished and looks so good. The big man put in a shit load of work and it's come up trumps.

Cats.

The last person to live in my friend Laura's flat left these miniature kitties. They are fantastic.

Go-Karts Trophy. Bride to be tiara.

I'm pretty sure I was wearing this tiara in the strip club for a while.
