all together ooky

I know it's been an absolute age since I blogged and I totally blame it on trying to pack up my 3 1/2 years of life in the UK and move it all over to Oz without my mother knowing. Well she kinda knew but she thought I was arriving 3 weeks later (I surprised her for her birthday) so things were all very covert for a while there plus I was rushed off my feet. This week, apart from hoping to land a job interview, my aim is to bring this blog up to date with the life of me. I'm sure someone out there cares...

But in the meantime, this has been sitting in my drafts. Somehow it came up at work (well my former work) so I had to google the lyrics (for personal edification) to The Addams Family.

The Addams Family

They're creepy and they're kooky,
Mysterious and spooky,
They're all together ooky,
The Addams Family.

Their house is a museum
Where people come to see 'em
They really are a scream
The Addams Family.

(Neat)
(Sweet)
(Petite)

So get a witches shawl on
A broomstick you can crawl on
We're gonna pay a call on
The Addams Family.

Possibly the best rhyming in history: "see 'em" and "scream". Genius.

floral craziness

I had never seen this flower before in my life although I was told it was a passion flower and is the flower of the passionfruit vine which you get quite commonly in NZ with the orange passionfruit so it's strange I haven't seen them before. But I have now and my aren't they crazy?
