Would you rather have a massage or get a facial?
To be honest neither. I don’t like strangers touching me.
Have you ever thrown someone a really extravagant party?
No, we don’t really do extravagant. Actually, we don’t really do parties.
GRATITUDE SECTION
Feel free to share some gratitude. It can be a photo, image, quote or just some wisdom.
Today, 20 June is the 20th anniversary of David and I moving to Tasmania. I’m very grateful that we had the opportunity to do that. I’ve never regretted the move for a moment.

Thanks Vanda for Sharing Your World! Those scents are particularly evocative aren’t they? I love the sound of the train whistle (there are tracks about two miles west of me I think and the sound carries. Something lonely yet comforting in a train whistle. Happy Anniversary! What a wonderful idea it was to move to Tasmania (which I now know IS part of Australia. My geography is very sorely lacking I’m afraid. 😳 Another blogger had the same reaction to that massage/facial question so I’m gonna amend it a bit and add or pedicure or manicure. I don’t like being touched by strangers either, totally get that! I hope you have a wonderful week and thanks for sharing that lovely photograph! It must bring back lots of good memories!

The photo was taken on our way home after a visit to Adelaide. We did that a couple of times to visit David’s family.
I’ve never had a manicure, I’d probably be OK with that but not a pedicure as I especially don’t like anyone touching my feet.

I think you have got to be the only person who like the smell of coal in an engine. Very cool 🙂 I like train whistles. The train no long stops in Uxbridge, but it does — about once a week — run through the middle of town over that bridge near the dam. I don’t think any of our trains run on coal anymore. I think they are all electric.

I think the only engines that still burn coal or wood are in preservation. It is strange to like that smell I guess but it reminds me of happy days. I like train whistles too. We’ve been watching some footage of diesels running through towns in different parts of the USA. There was one where there was a Christmas fair going on. The train was just metres away but nobody seemed bothered. It’s unusual to find rail lines going through towns here although there used to be some. I think they have all been pulled up.
