My contribution for this week’s challenge…
Express Yourself
~~~~~
This was a bit of a challenge…then two ways of
expressing myself came to mind.
These artworks which adorn our walls are mostly my purchases.
I like Australian scenery
However, not everyone in our household shares that point of view.
Me? I like them 🙂
This one is on my study wall and was either
a birthday or Father’s Day gift, a few years ago.
I had commented that I did like it but was not expecting it.
None of these will never be regarded as ‘masters’…but I like.
The second way of expressing ‘me’ is this series.
Collingwood Football Club (known as the Magpies)
is an Australian Rules football team
which I have supported since the late 1950s.
I cannot wait for the season to commence in a few months.
Depending on the weather and my seat (in the open or under cover),
you will find me wearing my team colours at the games.
The windcheater is a given…
and if the weather looks a bit on the chilly side
the Adidas jacket (first photo), complete with beanie and scarf,
also accompany me to the football.
As the years progress I find the beanie more useful 🙂
Collingwood is a suburb of Melbourne.

This is quite interesting, and I look forward to checking out your back posts. Our son currently lives in Gladstone, Australia, and we are hoping to visit there next Sept. or Oct., so I’m quite interested to see your area! Thanks.

Glad you enjoyed my post. Not sure in which Gladstone your is living, but whether Queensland, Tasmania or South Australia I’m sure he would be enjoying life.

Great art works. Our local provincial rugby team is also called Magpies. Just a different logo. Great photos. 😀

Well, let me put it this way. I came from Adelaide, and not from the Port area! So, it’s a different bird for me.

How many times have the Crows let victory slip from their grasp?

Probably as many times as Collingwood has lost Grand Finals by a few points.
