I was dining solo at one of my favourite haunts when in walked these three amigos.
       It was Michael and Rohan with Yamantaka Eye who was in town for Bamboo
       Musik and Sugar Mountain.

       Sugar Mountain Festival, January 14.

       Mum's birthday the night before resulted in quite a bit of leftovers, so we had a 

       barbecue prior to going to Sugar Mountain.  

       Joe Charles was making his own fun.

       Crix.

       It really was high fives all round.

       Jules was putting on an awesome performance with the No Lights, No Lycra
       troupe.

       Everyone wanted a piece of the action to savour later.

       This was Dylan Martorell's setup for his performances.

       The lighting on the main stage was the one of the best I've seen in all my music
       watching years, though black and white film isn't the best for capturing the vibe
       I'm on about.

       Mum's 60th birthday.

       Sheens and I made a chocolate ripple cake.

       It was a great night had by all.

       Good on you mum.

       Lola was well behaved for most of the night.

Mum and Pam.

 Brendan and I drove up to Shepparton to return some plinths to the art gallery there.

Here he is getting some winks on the way back.

       Earlier in the day we had breakfast with our friend Bim and her beautiful
       daughter Leo.

     Mum with Jules' sweet ride.

       Kate Moss' Mr Horsepower.

       Mine and Sheena's friends Robert and Sarah came to Melbourne from Berlin
       for the Xmas and New Years period. And they're back in Melbourne for a wedding
       as I type this entry.

 Robert at the Fitzroy Pool.

       Sarah and Robert.

       Robert and I went for a walk and saw the remnants of some poor driving.

       Turpins Falls, early January.

       We tailed "lead-foot" Day up this gravelly road not knowing the treats awaiting.

       And these were the spoils.

 Beauty nature.

       Jimmy Eisen having a blow.

       Ra and Cass smokin' the place out.

 Alzee putting out the vibe.

       His tattoo celebrating his dog Astro.

       Paradisiacal.

       Two of the best people I know and have known, Harriet and Ra.

       My pal Laith McGregor at his exhibition at West Space in December.

Forgot to post a picture from Christmas. Despite the rain it was still a great time. 

       New Year's Eve near Daylesford and Sheena's birthday in the city.

 Ross Williams by the dam.

 Simon McGuinness helping up Aurora.

 Beauty nature.

 All attention on Sheenie as she blew out the candles.

Slice of life.
