Blowy day at UTas

Here I am attacking a cheese muffin in a lovely courtyard at the University of Tasmania.

And it's cold!

Dinner in Tasmania

Here's a very rowdy but nice crowd doing their best to attack Tasmanian fare - and easily achieving this not so onerous task.

Tim Tams are all fine.

See previous entry.

False evacuation alarm now over.

Sandy Bay Evacuation

So this day is getting longer and longer. I went to Woolies to pick up a few items and as soon as I walked in, the evacuation alert went on. Here we all are running for our lives - I'm just hoping all this Tim Tams are OK...

Here at UTas

Well, it took nearly an hour of running around to check in two musical instruments with QANTAS - very tiresome. Then after a windy landing in Hobart, the shuttle bus driver dropped us 2 km from the accommodation resulting in me lugging a 17kg piano accordion (no wheels - lifting!) all the way - up hill of course!

Anyway the accommodation here at The University of Tasmania is very nice and I'm already settled.

Bring on the holidays!

Finishing the hat.

Having a lovely time with a knit and a natter at a friend's house before flying off to Tassie tomorrow.

Must remember to pack though...
