A Hole in the Wall
Wednesday, November 26th, 2008Yesterday, this was a wall.
Today, we are proud owners of a hole between our kitchen and lounge.
Renovations have started to pace up now. Yesterday, the bathroom was rendered. Today, the underfloor heating for the kitchen was installed by Avril and Matt. Tomorrow, kitchen tiling is completed and the new kitchen delivered. Friday is kitchen [...]

Private Angus Hodge
Sunday, November 23rd, 2008In the recent research of my paternal family history, I found reference to David Melville Hodge signing the papers for an Angus Hodge. These papers were permission given by David for Angus to join the Australian Infantry in 1916 for service abroad. He was only 18 years and 2 months old.
Private Angus Hodge was my [...]
Hodge Family History Update
Saturday, November 22nd, 2008As previously blogged, my ancestors hailed from the eastern shores of Fife, Scotland. Exactly where golf was invented.
Inspired by recent family events, I decided to revisit my June 2006 research and go further back. The previous searches had stopped at David Melville’s grandfather: John Hodge
Thanks to Scotland’s People, the official government source of births, deaths, [...]

“It’s Not a Sad Time”
Friday, November 21st, 2008http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grief
“It’s Not a Sad Time” was one of my Nana’s last wise phrases whispered to my Mum. Said more for those around her than herself, it is a canny reflection that behind the synthetic opiods her mind was active.
It is a phrase that I am pondering; as the funeral was a celebration of her achievements. [...]
Edna Dutschke
Friday, November 14th, 2008Edna Dutschke (nee Elix) passed away peacefully in her sleep, and under medical care during the early hours of 14th November 2008. She was 95, and had seen much in her life. Including giving life to two sons and a daughter. Her daughter is my Mum. Edna was by Nana.
Her grandparents immigrated from what is [...]
Bathroom Renovation: The Destruction

Friday, August 15th, 2008Sometime in 1986/7 I went to a doctor for what I found out was a sebaceous cyst on my left shoulder blade. Not going into detail, but I was left with a permanent reminder of this cyst. That is, the bulk of the scarring remained.
Yesterday, after an inflammation and a 6 week battle of with [...]
