Harry yesterday,

What colour will his eyes be? At the moment they seem grey.

Harry was very alert this morning

Here is a photo of our fifth grandson, Harry Thomas Campbell. He is only two weeks old but seems very alert.

Nury with delightful friend Alba who also joined us today

This was mum's favourite cafe in Melbourne and it was a chance to get her very near the sea in her wheelchair during the 22 years of her post stroke survival.

My excellent friend Nury was with me today, remembering my mum as we sat on her memorial bench.

These pretty spring blossoms from wattles and a South African tree in our garden have created a swathe of yellow.
