Aggressive Chocolate!!!

Coffee with the Girls!
(Erin, Lisa & Me)
After a great night out there is no better way to recover and recharge than with an AWESOME cup of
AGGRESSIVE CHOCOLATE!!!
 

Amazing Coffee can only be had at the best place in Durban Town...Colombo Fine Beverage co. with its' authentic 'old school' factory appearance and the original machinery laid out, where you can watch the beans being roasted while you enjoy a quality cup of one of their unique coffee blends.

RIFLEbangbang!

               
“I always heard
don’t go messing with a girl with guns
she don’t need you
she couldn’t love you
she couldn’t be any fun,”
“I never thought I could handle a girl with guns
and let me tell you
you can bet that I'm not the only one”




The beginning of many grand adventures; starting at Deane's South Coast Farm which I visited in the April Holidays.  Lisa and I took a drive down the South Coast in promise of Rifles 101, and some target practice with the boys...turns out we are not a bad shot, a couple of bulls-eyes each!! Not bad for a days shooting!!!

We are planning another visit in the near future and hope to see more of the Farm, Hydroponic Farming sounds fascinating!! And improve our shooting; from good, to EXCELLENT!!  We have been promised a clay pigeon shooting experience...and by George we shall be having it!!

The Birthday Party: Vee Speers



Vee studied Fine Art & Photography in Brisbane, Australia.  She resides in Paris where she finds unlimited potential and endless creative inspiration for her work.  Vee Speers’ work has been exhibited in London, Paris, Miami, New York, Boston, Houston, Sydney, Atlanta, Stockholm, and China, Ireland, Singapore, Japan, Germany, Austria, Italy, Tunisia, Brazil and Mexico. Her work has also graced the covers of  some well known Brand campaigns and magazines. 

This exhibition titled "The Birthday Party" was inspired by her own child hood and family.  These hauntingly beautiful portraits of children are how she became established into the art world.  "Her ability to blur the line between autobigraphy and fantasy, the bizarre and beautiful, is the key to these timeless portraits."
