Perth Royal Show 2007, Part 4

The baby animals were so cute. The baby goats were happy, all dressed up and munching away. The duck on the left wouldn’t stop talking! Seriously, it was quack quack quack non-stop the whole time. They had assembled the plumpest chooks I’d seen in a while! I presume this was to maximise the cuteness factor. […]

I nearly got run over by this train on two occasions during the day. We were keen to check out the cats, and headed to the Davis Cat Pavilion. According to this chart, our cats are around 36 human years old, so I’m the baby of our family! I love watching the pedigree cats being […]

Perth Royal Show 2007, Part 2

I’d been dreaming about eating hot buttered corn and BBQ pork ribs at the Show ever since last year’s Show. The Hot Buttered Corn stand was in the same spot as last year.

More Chinese home delivery

I am running so very behind with posts. This was our Chinese home delivery dinner on Saturday last weekend. We had special fried rice, of course. For a change, we chose deepfried chicken with crispy skin. It was just OK – perhaps a little on the dry side. The king prawns were deliciously bursty, and […]

Royal Show 2007

I haven’t had the time yet to sort through the 500+ photos I took at the Royal Show yesterday. But here are a couple of the pictures, which I quite like and wanted to share with you for now. I’m going to be very busy with work-related things for the rest of the week, but […]
