Another video for you today, shot back in late October (the 31st actually) as I took my first tentative steps into Melbourne town after lockdown was first eased.
Howdy all! Hope you're well wherever you are and welcome to another week on the old blog! Yes, another Valentine's day has passed us by and the year is moving along quickly. Did you do anything special for Valentine's day? I was working on Friday, the 14th, so we went out for dinner on the …

If you are a wildlife lover and you head to Victoria (that’s the state I live in, south-east Australia) you will find yourself in luck with Victoria’s zoos, well three of them, having sort of teamed up.
