Alannah comes from a long line of shop-keepers - starting from her 4 times great grandfather, John Dunstan Tonkin, who was an iron-monger in suburban Melbourne from the Victorian gold rush until the boom of the 1890s. Then there was her two times great grandmother, Sylvia Irene Veronica Cole, who kept shops in Crows Nest, Gosford, and Hornsby for the entirety of the first half of the twentieth century.
So it comes as little surprise when we slaved during our record breaking hot day of 45.9C to create a cup-cake shop. All baked on the premises, regardless of the temperatures beyond the shuttered windows, and closed doors. |

Imagination in the young is unbridled. What happens as we get older?
Come over to "Adventure....." and see my two treasures.
It is amazing what children will play and for how long, when their imagination is accepted and encouraged and not ignored or ridiculed.Endless entertainment for us Nans
The old fashioned toys are still better than the fancy tech stuff with gizmos and flashing lights.
I like these photos, I love the colours and the children's faces you have captured are endearing.
Thanks for your advice re CDP - have fixed the problem and raised the badge.
