Sculpture by the Sea



Saturday afternoon we went to Cottesloe Beach to see the Sculpture by the Sea exhibition. It is an annual event which attracts loads of people. There were around 100 installations and we tried to see them all. When we later looked at the catalogue it seems that we missed quite a few. Maybe we should have studied the catalogue first? My faves were the horses.

We were there just on sunset so the pics have a bit of a suntan.

Yesterday we had a visit from a couple of friends, one of whom we both taught back in the late 70s at Rockingham SHS. Robbie and Huw brought their baby, Ripper, a Spoodle. Ripper is a Spaniel/Poodle cross and extremely bright. Rob and Huw have obviously spent lots of time teaching him words which he recognises. At the mention of the word 'cat' Ripper jumps to attention and races off looking for the cat. Fortunately, the cat who visits us wasn't in the yard.
It was a most pleasant afternoon with lots of good conversation, food and drinks. Thanks guys for being good company and staying longer than required when visiting oldies.
