The plans of Mice and Men ...
Although the original concept for this photo-blog may have changed somewhat due to Life, Love etc (ad nauseum), I WILL chip away at this thing (where possible) until I have completed the countdown from 365. Who knows, I may have a sudden rush of available time (cough) or overwhelming inspiration and still complete the project within the 12 months, although the realist in me says "you're dreamin' mate" ... Whatever, However and Whenever, fruition SHALL be reached (and I have it on good advice that Fruition is a rather nice place, particularly in Spring) :o)

One of the hardiest and most colourful flowers of all, the bougainvillea, never ceases to amaze me how it survives. It's one of the few plants that thrives in many gardens around Port Moresby in Papua New Guinea where temperatures often soar past the 40C mark during the dry season. And that means dry. I've seen it go for 4 months without a drop of rainfall. Zilch. Not a drop. Yet the colourful bougainvilleas bloom across the capital. Here too in Brisbane. Em nau. Gutpela tru.
You'll have to translate that last bit for me sometime LG ... I spent a little time in Lae and also in Rabaul, but not quite long enough to pick up the language !
Sorry... to explain, Pidgin English, also known as Tok Pisin in Papua New Guinea... em nau is a local saying that literally means... that's right... or... that's okay... Gutpela tru ( pronounced goortpellar true ) basically means... really good. I spent many years in PNG ( since pre-Independence ) hence I often slip into the local sayings.
Young Man, I like how you see things.
