DESKTOP 3065 - YULETIDE

Yes, the decorations are up and it's only a few more sleeps till Christmas. This year we are not giving presents to family and friends, we are giving presents to complete strangers. Several community groups are organising gift drives for families with small children who cannot afford presents. Share the smiles, have a great Christmas!

DESKTOP 3064 - CHRISTMAS IN MELBOURNE

And with it the Omicron COVID variant, which is causing a great upset to many people's Festive Season plans. Many countries have nosedived back into lockdowns, others have introduced new restrictions and a great many more have reintroduced travels bans. Still, Christmas will be celebrated and people will survive and become stronger. Just take care and do your utmost to protect yourself and others around you!

Merry Christmas, Season's Greetings, Happy Holidays!

DESKTOP 2701 - MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Tecoma capensis (common name Cape honeysuckle) is a species of flowering plant in the family Bignoniaceae, native to southern Africa. Despite its common name, it is not closely related to the true honeysuckle. Synonyms include Bignonia capensis, Tecomaria capensis and Tecoma petersii.

The flowers are tubular, narrow, about 7.5 cm long, and are produced at different times throughout the year. They are grouped in 10–15 cm long terminal clusters. The flower colour ranges from orange to orange-red to apricot.
