A tram museum and friends

Yes more granny square stuff happening here.....how is everybody out there. I have 2 faithful followers who comment and real nice to hear from them ♥  Anyone else game to comment lol 

On Friday we caught a train back to our city place 

Tea out at a pub called The Nixon and Paul had a lovely burger.......no he hardly ate the chips and half a bun

Me yes, well wings as usual 

On Saturday we caught a tram 

To this area and just look at all those tram lines and wires.....neat church too 

Open day so we thought why not ......

So many wonderful old trams here 

How neat is this one 


And this colourful one 

Inside 

Lovely wooden seats in some 

Paul thinking about being a driver 


I road many of these in my early years as we lived close to where they ran into the city.....very fond memories of visiting my friends and also going into the city to work as a teen 



The signs indicating which route they did and able to be changed with a turn 

Rumour has it a tram is as heavy as 30 Rhino's so you don't want to be hit ☺☺


And this will tell you about the X class "Birney" tram imported from the USA......Hey Teresa and Gracie you may enjoy this little read ♥♥

Really neat and I have been on the tourist one in Bendigo 


Sure have been a great service in Oz and certainly Melbourne ☺☺

We then went to the movies in Gold Class to see "Avengers Infinity War".....stupid ending lol 

Brenton dropped round in the night 

And was a bad influence on Woody lol 

Sunday morning Woody noticed a police officer booking a lady driver 

And we went out to lunch with these dear friends.....Paul, me, Lanie, Looloo, Mark and Mark lol 

Looloo having fun with Woody 

Woody loved having fun with these girls ♥♥ 

Back home and yep still on this large granny fun at night 

Last night we had deconstructed burger for tea.....no bun and yum 

Krusty as I call him on facebook without all the hair he use to have.......
Well today we plan to go see that new movie "Solo" 
How is it where you are?  Any of the UK family want to leave a comment?  Love to you all from us xo

Another catchup post

Hello out there, been a few weeks since I posted.....whoops....this is a label I have for wrapping around something that I made for my older sister for her bday......need to see her sometime ☺

watched a great railway journey show which featured "the flying Scotsman" which we were lucky to see last year when we were in the UK......going again this year and wonder where it will be this time ♥

when we caught up with Pauls boy and wife and I gave them this blanket that I crocheted for them.....they were very happy with it ☺☺and sent me this pic ♥

we have had a few trees trimmed!!! lol more than a trim but they grow back and need hacking back every couple of years.....birds not happy 

in the back garden......last weekend (22nd may) we headed back to our city joint as were going to a concert ☺

Kasey Chambers Kasey_Chambers info......waiting for the music to start....

I even wore my new ankle boots lol  I have been a big fan of Kaseys for ever and love her country music style with plenty of upbeat happening too 

best I could get with my mobile as it did not like the bright lights lol 

ditto 

but got to share this pic taken by someone else.....her Dad Bill is on the far left...good night it was 


and on the Sunday I had my dearest best friends 60th.....a drinks, canapes and music evening 

they had caterers cooking and serving some delish food.....her hubby Mark is in the black shirt 


and here is Melanie chatting with another friend ♥♥

her brother in the middle came and I have also known him all my life ☺

it was great under this gazebo....and Melanie's son Rory is in the white shirt 

great happy gathering and we sure had plenty of chatting happening all over the place 

the best I could get when she made her little speech of thanks ♥♥

chatting with her bro 

and us.....friends since 1957

a hug goodbye and thanks for an awesome night 

I think Paul had taken enough snaps lol  we caught a bus/train/tram back to the city 

on Monday we decided to go to the IMAX about_imax  and watch on the massive screen a 3D movie with David Attenborough on the London museum....it was fantastic.....

and Tuesday back on the train home we go.....in the last carriage 

and we faced backwards ♥

and it rained along the way.....2hr journey

and look can see the tracks whizzing along......I was happy lol
