Family and Friends...
I am a very lucky girl to have such support around me - I wouldn't be who I am without my amazing Mum and Dad who have been behind me in my crazy plans to run a handbag business when I could be quite sensibly working my way up some corporate ladder somewhere! They were there when I was setting up market stalls at 5 am in the freezing cold when I started out 15 years ago and will still do anything for me today.
Plus of course this little business called Lyssy May would not function without the encouragement and interest of my friends - from those who've been there since day dot to those who have been customers or suppliers and are now very special friends. Above is one of my favourite pics from the best ever day at Lyssy May - the Think Pink party.Fishing...
Here I am with a massive catch of the day. Be assured that all I catch is to eat and anything else is returned to the ocean to fight another day!
Travel...
My travel bug has been kept in a cage for way too long - hopefully a nice little jaunt will be happening in the foreseable future. Above is a snap taken in a craft and trim store in Seville...heaven.Mangos...
The smell that summer has arrived - fresh or in my mum's mango cream pie is best. All year round though I can get my fix through Weis bars (originating in my home town of Toowoomba).Music...
I love lots of music but I really love good old rock and especially Australian made music. Here is Bernard from Powderfinger at the Arena in Brisbane a few years back. My first love is INXS but don't get me started or this will soon become a Michael Hutchence tribute blog!

...or morning tea, or anything that involves tea and a yummy cake or biscuit. The lovely Shannon gave me the Frankie afternoon tea book for Christmas - it brings back the home ec student in me.Laughing
My most favourite thing to share with people is a good laugh (and I have been told mine is rather distinctive!). When its not coming from a joke shared I love throwing on some Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, 30 Rock, The Royale Family etc but the funniest person I know hands down is my brother - he is a wasted talent in the accountancy scene.
