A week after my birthday Joan, one of my neighbours, called and gave me this beautiful large rose out of her garden.

On Monday, 29th of September, Peter and I went to the Dapto Leagues Club. As a member I had received birthday vouchers for free cake and coffee. I chose a rather large piece of cake with a profiterole. It was delicious. There was plenty for both Peter and myself.

After we finished our coffee and cake we went to another room where we had noticed – surprise, surprise! – on a big screen was shown the Berlin Marathon that had taken place on the previous day and where a Kenyan had been running a world record. There was still one hour’s running left to show on the screen. We decided we would sit down and watch it.

These lovely pots of tea were served to us.

I gave Peter my camera. So he took quite a few pictures from the screen. Most of these turned out all right.

Auntie, Sister. Grandmother, Great-Grandmother, Mother and Wife of German Descent I've lived in Australia since 1959 together with my husband Peter. We have four children, eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. I started blogging because I wanted to publish some of my childhood memories. I am blogging now also some of my other memories. I like to publish some photos too as well as a little bit of a diary from the present time. Occasionally I publish a story with a bit of fiction in it. Peter, my husband, is publishing some of his stories under berlioz1935.wordpress.com

    1. Ja, das finde ich auch, Gislinde, die Zeit vergeht einfach zu schnell!
      Nun ist es schon Oktober und bald haben wir wieder Weihnachten!
      Es war hier diese Woche für ein paar Tage recht warm geworden, aber seit gestern ist es schon wieder kühler, eben noch nicht so richtig Sommer. Es ist ja auch erst Frühling bei uns. Verleb den Rest der Woche recht gut, liebe Gislinde, und sei herzlichst gegrüsst von Uta in Australien. 🙂
