It is high time that I started channelling my inner Julie Andrews with a few of my favourite things discovered in the last twelve months.

Raindrops on roses and Macedon Chardonnay

Bright copper kettles and Lagrein on a bogged day

Dirty Three Pinot with pure fruit that sings

These are a few of my favourite things

Back to the Past: 1910

23 Jul

2013

Dear Melbournites,

For those in love with our ol’ Melbourne town and interested in a little history lesson, then stop, sit down and take a look at this little treasure: Video footage taken of Melbourne life in 1910.

These were the days when men and boys wore caps, trilbies, bowlers and boaters. Also noticeable are their fobs holding the pocket watches. Ladies wore large ostrich feathered hats and their dresses were full length. Flinders Street Station was busy as usual and Abbotsford Ale was the main brew in those days.

Happy watching.
