Well, our children have grown up and moved on and I am now only working about a day a week, so plenty of time for Liz and myself to do the things we want to do do. We enjoy exploring Australia together and we are both keen Mah Jong and Scrabble Players.
My other passion is sailing and wooden racing yachts. I own Peri, a Derwent Class racing yacht which is a piece of Hobart's maritime heritage. I've attached a couple of photos from the Derwent Worlds held here last February.
I also find time to grow berry fruits - loganberries, boysenberries, youngberries, raspberries, blueberries, gooseberries, black and red currents and probably some others I have forgotten to mention. I do a mean berry pie and summer pudding. Liz has experimented with berry liqueurs which we and our neighbours have enjoyed. The photo shows the loganberry and boysenberry rows.
Cheers
Steve
