A local wealthy tea-trader--Richard Horniman, decided his specimens collected worldwide, should be used to educate the public, for free, in perpetuity. Wise man.
The collections have been kept and added to and the museum is now a major educational resource for schools in the area.
Another hot dry day, today!
At end --return to Jacqui and Tom's and of course, Louis!
82nd Birthday - how did that happen?
Hi everyone, Mary recently had her facial BCC SCC cosmetic surgery and it is healing very well now stitches are out. We enjoyed her birthday celebration with the family (minus Michael Kris and boys) last night with cake cooked by Jacquie. Before that we spent a night in Blackheath in
Our local gallery , Hazelhurst, run by the council, hosted the year 12 indigenous art display which opened on Sunday with appropriate indigenous dances in Aboriginal costume . There were about 4o entries on display, all very good and some were for sale. The ones we liked had already been sold unfortunately.
