About me

GenderFemale
LocationBrunswick East, VIC, Australia
IntroductionI've been interested in history since I was a kid. Over time, I've researched my family history, completed several post grad degrees in education history, got involved in a variety of projects relating to the convicts of Van Diemen's Land and of late I've been very much involved in the history of my local area - Moreland - and in particular the suburbs of Brunswick, where I live, and Coburg, where I spent seven years as a teenager.
InterestsHistory of Coburg and Brunswick, female convicts in Van Diemen's Land, education history, family history, craft (card making, knitting), reading and writing (but not 'rithmetic), talking (my mum said I was born talking).
Favorite musicJazz, folk, classical, choral music, but not loud thumpy music.
Favorite booksMiddlemarch by George Eliot, whodunnits, biographies, whimsical reads, books about gardening and our connection to the land.

Why does the color blue mean raspberry-flavored?

Because it crossed the road? No, wait. That was the elephant and it crossed to the road to get to the other side. Hmmm...
