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.

Fine dining in Marvellous Melbourne!

Despite my occasional whinging about graffiti, violence, etc, I still love Melbourne. It really is a beautiful city, and we had the opportunity to admire it for two hours last Sunday. Ken's sister gave him a gift voucher for his birthday last December - lunch for two on Melbourne's Colonial Tramcar Restaurant. We finally got to go last Sunday, and we had a fabulous two hours. The food was excellent, and the weather was perfect, so I took nearly 100 photos! I deleted about half of them though, as being taken from the tram which has tinted windows, some of the photos didn't turn out very well. The rest of them I am going to put on a temporary blog so our friends and family (and anyone else who is interested, of course) can have a look.
Just for starters, here is a pic of the tram at the pick up point. As one of the other patrons remarked when taking her photo "Lovely tram, pity about the background"!


This is the interior - I took this before the other diners were seated.
