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" !

Iron Man 3 at the Hornsby Odeon
So who hasn't seen Iron Man 3 over the Long Weekend?
Do consider supporting our local indie cinema the Hornsby Odeon?
Semi spoiler those moments of humor the reviewers refer to ... watch out for TREVOR's appearance and you'll find out why Ben Kingsley was willing to do this sand yes there is a short gag scene at the VERY very very end of the credits!
Some of the humor is ironic other moments ... wait were they implying something about ... just go enjoy it !
Now if only the Odeon was going to show Star Trek too ...

That Bus seat again!
That Bus seat again?!
I'm sorry to report I have had no feedback whatsoever from the develope Civil Plus Hornsby Council hornsby Advocate or anyone else about the smashed bus seat and who we can complain or contact to arrange some kind of temporary shelter.
Folks please contact these people. Maybe if a lot of us complain action will be taken but meanwhile commuters who catch the M6) 632 or 589 at the First Pacific stop are left with no shelter from sun wind or rain.

The OTHER Bike Path
Yes this is about the OTHER Bike Path. The one that's suppose to be part of a network running across the North Shore. One section of it runs along the back of the units on College Crescent and has been paved in sections VERY slowly over the last decade. One section up at the top under the church car park is STILL unpaved and partly because of that I suspect the pathway is mainly used by local residents people walking dogs and a few skateboarders and maybe a few ACTUAL cyclists too?
I went for a walk there a couple of days ago and find one narrow section is NOT clogged with weeds. I'm not sure who is suppose to be finishing this project but this is just ridiculous. Can the whole path be paved and finished properly after someone rips up the weeds? It would take one or two days at the most to finish but apparently since its not in public view a mountain bike trail that can't be used when it rains is more important?

The Hornsby Mall Eagle
People seem to either love or loathe the Sculpture Fountain in the middle of the Mall or just walk past it without noticing its complexity.
I wonder how many of us have noticed there's an eagle at its apex?

Party Noise College Crescent Hello
College Crescent Residents
Hello and an UNgentle reminder
NOISE CARRIES
Yes We realise it was a warm summer night so you had the balcony doors open but it was the middle of the week and your dinner party / drinking session went on and on and on until ... was it after 2 AM?
Did you notice the large building site across the street?
Some of us work casually or from and look forward to quiet nights after a day or a half day depending what hours we're working on.
We'd had to listen to swearing yelling crashing drilling cutting banging from that building site all day.
You may have been out all day and need to unwind and relax?
Fine B U U U T
Please cease to do that as you've done it before by shrieking loudly from your balcony!
Either close the doors or drink less on weekday nights!
I'm sure your building manager and body corporate have received complaints.
I don't want to add to that list!

January Rose

Despite the heat wave followed by the rain the roses in Hornsby park are thriving and for every one damaged by the heat another beautiful blossom is nearby.
Do take a walk through the park. Yes the one up near TAFE.

A confused magnolia.
A confused magnolia indeed. Usually they blossom in August but there is one local tree thats out of synch of the rest or perhaps from different stock?
Its blooming now in summer instead of late autumn.

When I looked at this pattern of cracks from a certain angle I saw the outline of mountain ranges. What do you see?

TAFE LATE ENROLMENTS ARE POSSIBLE
Don't forget that classes do not start for another week or the week after for some courses and that LATE enrolments are possible in many courses. There's always some people dropping out in the first month or so cos they enrolled for more than one course so do contact the individual department inside of TAFE and get your name on a waiting list !
