Rack em Up

The finished article from the project I started yesterday, a rack to hold my paints. The theory being that they will be easier to find like this than hunting around in a crate has been. It's a little rough and ready, not as neat and smooth as if Birchy had made it, but it will do the job.

The tragedy of the Victorian bushfires became a little more personal today. A new student who started at school today came to talk to me this morning. She used to live near Whittlesea and one of her friends died in the fire at Kinglake. As you can imagine she was overwhelmed with sadness and grief. With 130 confirmed dead it is the worst bushfire in Australian history. I fear there may be more bad news in the days ahead.

Sports Update: Spurs drew 0-0 with Arsenal despite the Gooners having only 10 men from the 40th minute mark. A draw is better than a loss but really not good enough in the circumstances. On the plus side, the new signings played well, especially Placiados from Honduras.
