reviving this blog

Hello im considering reactivating this blog and linking it to my yohornsby instagram n twitter accounts 

Name Change coming and Hornsby Rain

That hornsby blog will be having its name changed or be removed and replaced by a new blog with a slightly different emphasis and name  very soon

meanwhile I just had to acknowledge last weeks dubious distinction of a new rainfall record ...this is a link to teeshirts but its also on cups and stickers.

If any sell I'll be doing the usual thing ... proceeds split 50 - 50 between my bills and a local charity.

If anyone actually misses the flower photos wait for the new blog

I slowed down on taking photos while I was getting used to  the new camera and I've been looking for something to new to "shoot" !

Australia Day is coming

Australia Day is coming soon! 

Don't forget 2 things 

1) You are Australian Born here or Migrated and a Citizen if ... well for one thing you know OZ doesn't just refer to the Frank Baum Books.

We do have cultural values ... respect the Aussie Battler give everyone migrant or native a fair go ... buy Australian ... learn to endure the Fire and Flood cycle ... distrust foreign authority .... patriotism shouldn't be over done or excessive but some days are Special... Australia Day Anzac Day November the 11th ... Asian New Year cos even if you're not Asian we all love our fusion Asian Aussie foods like the local version of Cantonese Custard Tarts etc or noodle dishes with Aussie seafood!

2) You don't have to go all the way into the city to see fireworks!

Check out what's on locally. Even if you don't want to join crowds it might turn out you can get a good view from your window ... and I'm hoping the @##$%$%@ D@59@s building doesnt block too much of my view of the West Pymble fireworks. 

finally that logo above is available ... yes here's the ad but hye support a local designer 100 % OZ items like tees and stickers can be purchased from

Xmas Lights

#hornsby #sydney #xmaslights 

in a tiny short street running parallel to the rail that dead ends in a pathway up to Pretoria Parade there is one home owner year after year turning his front yard into a Christmas fantasy.

Walk down and take a look. They were still up last night!

DOULOS DEN and Carols yet to come!

Hey people that racket about half an hour ago was an alarm going off in the Doulos building on the corner of Pacific Highway and Pretoria!

If you're in that area this evening Sunday 21 the Baptist Church on the opposite corner will be having its FREE sausage sizzle and carols concert 6pm onwards.

Finally a reminder if you have found any photos useful over this year well I do have a Paypal tipjar and an Amazon wish list? Thank you!
