A lot of Hot Air

Whilst many boys are excited by cars, trains, guns or TV characters,   Jack is very taken with hot air balloons.   Candle power was not enough but luckily. . .   Rob found a great blowtorch for a burner in the garage;    <-----  the results you can see in the video         Hmmmm. . . . . wonder what comes next. . . .

Nap Time

Max is 1

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MAX The Riley house-hold were a bit under the weather with the flu this week, but all had a good time helping Max to celebrate the occasion. There are a few more pictures here .

Whisky-Wednesday

Cath and Ryan recently spent a week-end in Melbourne and the drinks trolley seems to be well stocked at the moment.

Following ancient tradition; family members and friends gather to partake in sampling malt whisky on Wednesday evenings. Often follwed by a meal at a nearby restaurant.
