Firstly we had some sad news recently that Dave, Mike's elder brother, had passed away in the UK.
R.I.P

Remembering the good times we shared over the years
Now our news, which isn't very exciting this month, so there's not a lot of photos as the weather has been too bad to get out much!
John celebrated his birthday at the beginning of the month and they went off camping for a few days as the kids were on school holiday. We didn't get down to Denmark to share the celebrations, but John sent these photos.

Notice the crown - it's a tradition in their family to be 'King for the day!'
Here's some photos we've taken locally, when the weather permitted, and indoors when it didn't!

| 2 owls in a tree opposite our house |
The owls are not very clear, as apart from the fact that the owls were trying to hide, I took it on my mobile phone and also the wind was blowing the leaves and branches!

On the right is the mini Grandfather clock Mike made, with Don Quixote and an old edition of the book.
At the end of the month, we went to the Murdoch University Open Day and met up with Alex and Dan who were painting murals there. Here's some photos of a huge one which they finished recently.

That's about it for this month, hopefully there will be another blog next month if the blog program doesn't play up too much!
