I can't upload my own pictures, due to some little Sausage dog kicking my computer onto the ground and making the Card reader smash into 6 bits. The computer is a ok. Macs are really strong. It's the second time it's happened in it's life and it just keeps of working!! Lucky it has insurance, just incase!

This is my day three of my , Week of Vintage Australia hosted by Gemma over at Meet me at Mikes!!

These are my Australian Golden Books.
I love the illustrations in Little Binjy and just discovered that I have two copies!!
I remember watching the adventures of Skippy on Saturday afternoons.
Hop Little Kangaroo, is a sweet little story. I especially like that Kangaroos can make Sweet Berry Pie. But most of all when mother Kangaroo tells her little one " you can do anything, if you try".

Thanks to the internet for the photos.
