Patra's Other Place

I started out with Patra's Place, primarily dedicated to my linen collection and stitching projects. But I kept getting side-tracked, so I decided to create Patra's Other Place for anything not related to embroidery topics. So you now have a choice. If you are interested in me, read this. If you only want to see my linen and stitching, visit Patra's (original) Place! (Please note that by clicking on any of the photos, they will be enlarged to fill your computer screen.)

I was married to Ken for 43 years, but he died in October 2022. So I am now alone with two cats, eight hens, and a few finches and parrots in one aviary.

January 6th - another Milestone.

Today (well technically yesterday, as it is just past midnight) is our 27th Wedding anniversary. Every year with my Ken is a bonus, taking his health into consideration. We always give each other a card, and go out somewhere special for dinner. We didn't go out on Friday night; instead we are going out on Saturday night with old friends...by old, I don't mean age. Well, they are as old as us and I guess to some people that's old (late 50's/early 60's)! No, I meant that I have known my girlfriend since we were teenagers, and her hubby is one of Ken's best mates. We are going to a restaurant up in the Dandenongs, called Kellys On The Hill - 'Kelly' relating to Ned Kelly. The menu specialises in bush tucker - kangaroo, crocodile, buffalo, etc. but also includes pizza and pasta for those with less adventurous tastes in food. Ken and I love bush tucker, but my girlfriend said she will stick to more traditional food like chicken or steak! Should be a fun night anyway.
