A shame you can't visit the NGV but neither can I at the moment, even though you did have that nice dream about me driving down to the Art Deco exhibition. (And no, I don't have a car.) The distances are a problem and so are air fares, but later this year I'm going to do some exploring of country towns (in someone else's car). I'm really looking forward to that.Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01914350639398715648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254015.post-41987834192895872008-07-24T11:53:00.000+12:002008-07-24T11:53:00.000+12:00Honey, I don't live near Melbourne- but I have a c...Honey, I don't live near Melbourne- but I have a comfy sofa bed and a new 4 shaft floor loom that I have no idea how to use.

Have visited North and South Carolina, but never been to DC, Niagra Falls or Las Vegas. I haven't even been to LA, which are all in the same damn country. So can I join you downstairs, hehe..DEEP END OF THE LOOMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01010018190905285835noreply@blogger.com
