Mid week holidays




Today is the People's Day holiday for the 'Ekka', the annual Brisbane Royal Show called The Exhibition - but in true Aussie style this has been shortened to Ekka. School children have another holiday tomorrow as well, and state school teachers go back for in service, but Catholic schools (bless 'em) allow staff the extra day too. Tomorrow I have the car booked in for a service, Rene and I have to sign documents at the bank for his business loan, and Rene also wants to finalise the 4WD car for the Northern Territory trip in a fortnight. Additionally he also wants to buy a new digital camera for his business (my faithful Nikon is now incredibly four years old and still going well). So, a day off for me, but filled with interesting activity.






Rene's been busily making frames and stretching canvases for the existing 30 or so Aboriginal paintings he has bought for his private collection. They looked great as canvas, but now stretched on frames they look stunning. He's decided on the logo and now the printing of stationery and the creation of the website is underway. This is the final logo:
