I was working in Perth today and the house on Main Road is all decorated for Halloween.


It's pretty spooky during the day, but night time would be awesome to see all lit up.

Kinky Boots at the Princess Theatre.

I spent a lovely afternoon with Crystal at the Princess Theatre to see Kinky Boots.  As it is one of my favourite movies, it was a real treat to see the musical at the theatre.  The admission included a programme of the show and a little drinkie.  How spoilt was that.  



Kinky Boots - my favourite movie.


The cover of the Programme.


The stage before the show started.


We were allowed to take photos of the curtain call.


They are so talented. 


Charlie and Lola and the rest of the cast.

Some photos from the programme and quotes from the movie.


Ladies, gentlemen and those who are yet to make up your mind.


Lola and Don.  Talking about boots  "If you can't get women to wear them....
you'll never get a bloke like me to wear em."


Put on a frock and I can sing 'Stand by Your Man' 
in front of five hundred strangers... 
Put on a pair of jeans and I can't even 
sodding well say hello.


Burgundy. Please, God, tell me I have not inspired something burgundy. 
Red. Red. *Red*. *Red*, Charlie boy. *Red*! Is the colour of sex! 
Burgundy is the colour of hot water bottles! 
Red is the colour of sex and fear and danger and signs that say, 
Do. Not. Enter. All my favourite things in life.


The Kinky Boots cast.


Lola and the Girls.

Charlie, Lola and the Girls in Milan.

Brilliant, brilliant show.  We thoroughly enjoyed the performance.

Breakfast at the Harbourmaster

We snuck off early and went out for breakfast at the Harbourmaster in Devonport.  The other week when we arrived back in Devonport from the Mainland on the Spirit, it was really early and the Harbour Master was unfortunately not open.  So we made a special trip just for breakfast.  And it was SO worth it.


The Harbourmaster Cafe Restaurant with the Spirit behind it in the Mersey River.


The Harbourmaster.


We had the place to ourselves.


The service was prompt and we had cappuccinos.


Richard with has coffee, waiting for breakfast.


We both ordered Eggs Benedict with a side of bacon.
So yummy.


The Spirit was in Devonport.


The John Duigan sailed past.


The rich red soil around Devonport ploughed ready to plant potatoes.
Sorry about the blurry window.


A stretch of road on our way back home.


More of the countryside.





Burnt out car on the side of the road.


One of the many huge gum trees uprooted by the storm that went through the other week.




Bridport for fish and chips

We had a little bit of spare time yesterday, so we went for a lovely ride on our Spyder to Bridport for fish and chips for lunch.  Also, I w...
