Looks like being a dry day again so come on down as I've loads of new books on the stall, particularly Impressionist catalogues. I've acquired a large number so if you're after works by Picasso, Monet, Pissarro et al, then I'm your man. I should have a clothes rail up so as well as t-shirts and sweatshirts I've got coats including Barbour and Pierre Cardin. Bargains galore.
As an incentive, the first person to say the following will be able to pick two art auction catalogues of his/her choice:
"...We are all possessed of a youthful pride
When the staunchest of mates move close at hand
For we have fought and ridden beside
The galloping 'Men of Maoriland'. "
These line come from a poem by 'Gerardy', an Australian Light Horseman, entitled "The Men of Maoriland". Today marks the 100th anniversary of the landings at Gallipoli, ANZAC Day being the day we commemorate the service of our armed forces. Apart from images pulled from newspaper sources I can't find it on the web so I plan to type it out so that people can find it easier. I'll show it as it appeared in the Kia-Ora Coo-ee. People tend to forget that after the pullout from Gallipoli the war continued in Palestine and Sinai for the duration of the war.
See you soon, Andrew.
