Thumb

Pictures of my thumb, which I cut in Geelong yesterday afternoon.
Took this one in the doctor's waiting room:

Took this one back at the church, after my thumb had been all glued up again:

Beware the knives of Norlane

This afternoon I came down to Norlane (in Geelong) to visit my mentor, Luke. Stayed aound to help cook dinner, and ended up cutting my thumb instead of the cabbage. (There is a guy who helps with the dinners who works at an abattoir, and likes the knives really sharp...) I said, 'Oh f***!'
Luke took me to the doctor, who glued it back together and also gave me a bonus Tetanus shot.
Will post pictures when I get back to Melbourne tonight.

North Shore candles, grey zucchinis and lamb pie

Went down to North Shore again this morning.


Afterwards went and got some grey zucchinis (I had never heard of them before) to take for lunch. (Luke has organised some lunches where everyone has to bring a vegetable to contribute to the meal, so that people can make a contribution rather than just being 'clients' who need to be helped by the 'workers'.) Luke cooked a lamb pie. We also had some potatoes that a lady called Sue had brought.

Geelong

I'm currently staying in Norlane (northern suburbs of Geelong, near Corio), at Seedy Abbey (Norlane Baptist Church), with Luke, Kylie, Charlotte, Jo and Bob.
Slept in till about 11 this morning (Monday).
Walked down to North Shore.

Then walked into town.

Got some lunch in town, and some more floating candles, then walked along the beach a bit.


Caught the train back to North Shore Station, and then walked back to Seedy Abbey. Got back in time for the community dinner. Chilli con carne and baked potatoes.
Afterwards I went with Jono and Jo up to the You Yangs. Jono had to get some landscape pictures for uni, and he was hoping there'd be a nice sunset. Unfortunately it was pretty cloudy.
