Wonder what they were on? |
Dude! Seriously cool.. |
Hands up who loves their job? |
Hands down who doesn't |
Everywhere a riot of colour |
Lovely coffee maker |
I'd be getting that washing in soon |
Nice breakfast |
Definitely a man happy in his work |
Rambutans - still getting the hang of the camera settings, but pretty anyway |
Jackfruit |
Ditto earlier photo |
Jackfruit & Dragonfruit |
Early birds |
Feeling crabby |
Fishy tails |
There's a story to this.. later |
Black-skinned chickens |
Tails of two fishies |
Still pretty quiet |
Can't have too many spoons |
Or buckets |
So much colour |
In a couple of hours this will be heaving with people |
I'm sure I need something from here |
Gorgeous! |
