It was foggy this morning

Normal day. Foggy day. After the fog cleared… you got it. Geocaching. Took us about half an hour to find! Nearly broke an ankle. Good fun.

That’s Perth – a journey of connections

by Cellobella on Monday, April 2, 2012 · 1 comment

Today on the Fremantle line, we got to City West when the train driver said  ”A fire alarm has activated in the Perth station and you need to de-train here and walk into the city.” We all got off the train and watched as our driver bravely took off into the inferno that wasn’t the [...]

Stand to the left Perth – and make our city better!

Warning: Rant alert A foggy morning. The rain splattered against the skylight in my bathroom so I knew it was raining. Raining! Deep happiness. I walk into my bedroom to get changed and I can hear this weird rushing sound. I check to see if the overhead fan is on… or maybe the reverse cycle [...]

A Vespa and me, an inner-city moment

by Cellobella on Wednesday, May 11, 2011 · 4 comments

Oh yeah baby! That’s me on the back of a Vespa about to scoot through the streets of Perth with TFB. You don’t know TFB? Let me just say that the T stands for The and the F stands for Fabulous. ’nuff said. We are co-training a course and after today’s sessions we decamped with [...]

How much do I love winter?

by Cellobella on Friday, April 8, 2011 · 5 comments

Well winter in Perth anyway which is pretty mild. Cool enough to wear boots. No need for a parka. And yes I know it’s not winter yet. And one shower does not a winter make. Oh but wasn’t it nice to wake up to a washed world yesterday. To not feel hot. To wear boots [...]

Waiting game

Have you ever driven to Perth airport and noticed the lines of cars along the main drag leaving to the car park? They are nearly always there and today I am one of them. I am picking up a colleague’s wife who is coming down to Perth for treatment. Her flight is coming in at [...]

The summer of our discontent

by Cellobella on Sunday, February 27, 2011 · 4 comments

I tried to avoid a weather post, I honestly did. But more than three weeks of stupidly hot weather, hot and humid weather, finally broke me. Jeez Louise – how long is this going to last! It’s more than a koala bear. Up to today we’ve had 21 days over 30 degrees celcius… and the [...]

Could Christmas decorations in Perth be more lame?

by Cellobella on Wednesday, November 10, 2010 · 6 comments

I’m sorry but isn’t this the boom state? Could we not do something a little more classier? I know that everyone has those old tinsel trees ready to throw on the verge and therefore the City of Perth is doing us a favour by recycling them but please people! Surely we can do better that [...]

Get your mum to apply the sunblock

by Cellobella on Tuesday, November 2, 2010 · 1 comment

This is why. Ah the follies of youth. Of course none of us would go outside in the Perth sunshine, well known for its lethal properties and expose our skin to within an inch of the burns unit. Would we? Nahhhh. Well not without letting someone we trust apply the sunblock. My poor baby has [...]

In a New York Minute

by Cellobella on Friday, October 22, 2010

“In a New York Minute, everything can change… things can get a little strange” DON HENLEY I’m in this  Spontaneous Insanity show at the Subiaco Arts Centre and I am out of my comfort zone. It is a wholly improvised show, with improvised music and improvised lighting. Luckily I completely trust my fellow actors and [...]
