I'm Julie, and I live with my husband and three young daughters in New South Wales suburbia, Australia. This is the online journal I kept until recently, of how we are trying to live more simply & sustainably in suburbia.

This blog is on indefinite hiatus but please feel free to look around my archives for some inspiration in your own journey to living more lightly and sustainably.

Pusha backa the Pasha Bulker

Yeah, I know it's off-topic again, but hey, it's not every day a massive coal ship lands on your local beach ;-) The above post title is just one of the many T-shirt slogan suggestions doing the rounds, LOL.

A helicopter lowers equipment to the salvage team onboard (while it's raining heavily).


Looks pretty stuck!


To show the scale of the ship: check out the guy in the yellow jacket standing on the new sand spit on the left hand side of the ship.

I've been listening to some of the slogans too - my faves were "ship happens" and (since I have a preschooler, this one tickled me) "That's the last time we leave Jeff in charge of Captain Feathersword's boat" ;)

Hi Kerrie :-) Yeah, I loved those ones too, especially the first one, LOL. Nice to "see' you! Cheers.
