a *virtual coffee* by the beaches...

*a virtual coffee*...Down Under...


my first back in our little beach house...


surrounded by gumtrees & beaches...

if we were really having a *virtual coffee* together...


i'd sit you out on our back balcony to look at the palm trees with a pot of tea...

or if it was early evening when you popped past- a corona & lime...

i'd give you one of the big old vintage cane chair- we have two- one each...x

if you've ever shared a *virtual coffee* with me, whilst we were living in the English countryside-

{enjoy some English *virtual coffees* together here}, you'd know that usually you get the pink chair

in front of the fireplace...the one overlooking our roses & the front path...

back home, here in our beach house - you're always going to get the chippy, old, vintage cane chair

looking out over the back garden of gardenia's, frangipanni's & palm trees...

i promise you, it's a perfect spot to while away some friendship hours...

if we were really sharing a *virtual coffee* together...i'd ask you how the *flip* you've been as it

feels like waaay to long between a little time out together...

i'd have to ask you how the weather is where you are- as we left England a month ago & it was 

snowing & now we are back to the tropical weather of an Australian summer...read hot & wet...

i'd ask if your kiddos are all still on holidays...

we *Down here* are still enjoying our 6 weeks summer/Christmas school holiday...

we've fit sooo much into this years summer break- not the least, the 12,000 mile flight across the 

globe- back home to the beaches of Sydney...

so...tea & {lamingtons} in hand...i'll show you a few of the *moments* round our house today...

a *virtual coffee* in our loved little sandy floored beach house...

vases & shells...oars & bunting...

tongue & groove walls...sunlight...

chippy old tables...baskets...

& dark wooden floorboards...

striped beach towels & home made hand surfers...

wooden bowls of collected shells & sea glass...

if we were really sharing a *virtual coffee*- i'd ask you what you think of this new *coastal 

country* thing i'm loving...

all this *beach* you see going on here- our life to date...is soon to sit alongside all our *country* that's

sailing it's way to Oz- *Coastal Country*...

we'll have to do a *virtual coffee* morning when it all arrives- the big crate full of vintage country 

treasures found over the last four years from our English village...to our travels through Europe...

that's actually going to take a few coffee's...or at least a bottle glass of wine or two together...

let me know if you're in... :-)

*virtual coffee*
