One of Lib's work colleagues rang this evening, saying to me that she'd been trying to ring Lib this afternoon but no one was home. It was a public holiday of course as Australia Day fell on Saturday. Lib had the day off. I said Lib went to the pictures with Gord then passed the phone to Lib.
There was a lot of laughter as Zennia, a Fillipino lady, tried to work out what 'the pictures' was. But come to think of it, we always went to 'the pictures' when we were young, the term movies came in later I reckon. I think it started out as 'motion pictures' and was shortened to 'the pictures', however the 'movies' is certainly the term used now.
They saw Les Miserables and said it was very good. There was supposed to be some rain today but it didn't come, not here anyway. I picked green beech at Bob and Dawn Smedley's at Mt Burnett and weeded in the 'vegie garden' at the farm, which is more an annual herb garden, and watered some things late in the day in Nobelius Park.
