Mitcham is a very pretty suburb, a lot of the older Eastern Suburbs are, they're so well established and many of the oldest homes are still there.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2664393407924733681.post-73484887455222219762015-04-12T16:07:46.398+09:302015-04-12T16:07:46.398+09:30Thanks for taking us on a walk around Mitcham Vill...Thanks for taking us on a walk around Mitcham Village.<br />I also liked the idea of the rusty look, very effective.<br />We don't have sulphur cresteds in W.A. but seems to may be nearly as destructive as the keas in New Zealand although both species are beautiful birds.<br />The Mitcham area seems most interesting and looking forward to some more pics for there.<br />Hope all is now under control healthwise and I am wondering what your suspicion may be. I've been thinking about it and also had a thought or two about it. Will be interesting to know the outcome. You could always email me. Just a thought.<br />Hope you and Angel have been having a great weekend.Mimsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00249766510078357225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2664393407924733681.post-90903566670715265772015-04-12T12:24:17.746+09:302015-04-12T12:24:17.746+09:30Delores; it is a very beautiful area, one of the o...Delores; it is a very beautiful area, one of the older suburbs of Adelaide, so it has had many years to become well established and it is one of the "better-off' areas so the funds are there for good maintenance.<br /><br />Andrew; I think the cow is a great idea. EVERYONE should know where their meat comes from, in fact everyone should know where ALL their food comes from. <br /><br />Elephant's Child; I'd love a wall like that on my home! Our weekend buses are mostly every hour too, a few select areas have half hour time-tables. On weekdays we have half-hour runs with other suburbs having 15 minute "go-times" in peak hours to get people to and from work and school. <br /><br />Lee; I read my Sunday (and Saturday) paper first, if I didn't it would never get read. Angel is used to this routine and leaves me alone until the paper gets put in the recycle bin. <br />I think last week's 'excitement' is over, I have a suspicion which I will discuss with my doctor.<br /><br />Joanne; a lot of our Municipal buildings are nice to look at. I think our council rates pay for them, since our roads and storm-water runoffs are mostly in pretty poor condition. (*~*)<br /><br />Merle; Adelaide has lots of Toy libraries and I'm sure other cities do too, we just don't notice them much because our children are no longer babies. You like cheesecake too?<br /><br />Vicki; there will be more photos next week. I've seen that rusted effects paint in Bunnings catalogues, but haven't thought of a reason to buy any. Perhaps a brand new wheelbarrow, painted to look old and rusty, then planted with flowers and herbs.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2664393407924733681.post-14430854521464197792015-04-12T12:03:21.615+09:302015-04-12T12:03:21.615+09:30Lovely walk 'round, thanks for taking us along...Lovely walk 'round, thanks for taking us along.<br /><br />I really like the "rusted iron" look. It's amazing what they can do these days.<br />I saw similar paints for rust effects in Bunnings not long ago.Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16023748614942747415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2664393407924733681.post-61397968963460307772015-04-12T07:20:22.014+09:302015-04-12T07:20:22.014+09:30Lovely area.
