This is how I roll……
The Partington Family are the closest family since the Brady Bunch. We are well adjusted and all get along, however we do seem to attract a ‘funny story’ and some ‘drama’ wherever we go. Follow our day to day activities . . .
What an iconic SA business the Port Elliot Bakery is. How many businesses have a constant 30m queue outside waiting to buy pies etc even in 40 degree weather?. (pic taken yesterday). Their honey sticks are insane!:-)
Read MoreCongratulations to all the kids who have recently graduated and are leaving their primary schools etc. Well done to all the kids who received awards, became captains and achieved academic and sporting excellence through their early years on their journey to adulthood. Special mention must go to the ‘Partington Boys’ from Woodside who spent their last day of school making a name for themselves by discovering the game ‘spin the bottle’ ( for kisses on the cheek) and giving out ‘free hugs’ to the ladies. Mum and Dad are very…

Read MoreGuess what I am now driving???….. Yes, I am now the proud owner of the most prestigious vacuum cleaner in the world! As you can see – it is an “investment” (as Tanya would say) in the effective removal of dog hair in our home. The cleaner has been selected for its shiny stainless steel construction so it can now be showcased as a piece of furniture as well as a cleaner. This unit claims to purify the air as it cleans, hence the doggy odours and hayfever will be…
Read MorePartington ‘Cholesterol’ Burgers (a Facebook post with a twist) This post is a tribute to all the people who post their meals on Facebook and know how to ‘plate up’ like a Masterchef. I thought it would be more appropriate to present a visual collage of the raw ingredients I am using before I ruin them:).
