Yes I saw those buildings in the story on TV. Funnily enough I am reading a book called Old B*ast*ards I have met. He talks about the Jackie Howe singlet, which of course is the black singlet. Must have been a long time ago as this book was written in the 1970s and he was already famous.

Yes, according to this he died in 1920.Very interesting info actually.
I think I've read that book, or at least heard of it.

I picked it up for 20 cents at a market. A funny read.

The wind has died today so it's been a beautiful day warm sunny day.
I've decided to head west with sis and bil tomorrow. Sis said I need a longer shakedown trip than just to here. So I'm doing as suggested.
Not sure where we'll be tomorrow night, but we're heading for Injune. Our cousin's wife has a quilt show on there. Apparently she's known all over the west for her amazing quilts.

Good on you Beth, you might as well while you have Lulu out of mothballs. Its all a learning curve.
