June-25

 Not much happening in June, according to my records. Work sucks, boys studying sometimes, dog seems chill.

I've been sewing leather cases. I did one for me, one for Mohammad. This one was for Tony as his was falling apart. If anyone's reading this, the offer is there; I can make you one too.

It's very relaxing, uses scraps of leather, lasts for ages, and each time I do it, I definitely learn something and get a bit better.

Trying out the Greens up the coast, right near us; you can see it from our back yard. No idea what the convo was about here.

Marie went away to Croatia this month. In fact, I should really put some pictures of here trip up, eh, next post. I am really happy with these two guys getting some cook time in. Really need to do it more.

Marie ordered tickets for us to go to some skate/acrobatic type show at the Opera house. They were very good; one dude on the skateboard - I think I was about as good as this guy. The BMX guy, the girl and others were pretty amazing.

I've been doing some reserach in preparation of seeing a lawyer regaring getting an Italian passport. It's interesting that thanks to the Australian govt locking them up, we've got a bit of a trove of docs showing dates of arrival etc etc.

Turns out this info was useless, as since they became naturalised in Oz, they gave up Italian citizenship, so we are not entitled to a passport. Oh well. Apparently if we'd done it a couple of years ago, they were accepting everyone. But due to the overwhelming numbers of Sth Americans applying, they tightened up the rules. 

Boys, if you want to live there, just get a job, simple.

Our favourite dog models the blankets in the front room while we watch TV. Doesn't she look wonderful?
