ANZAC DAY

ANZAC, a single word so powerful in the Australian vocabulary that it can bring a tear to the eye, a lump in the throat and a feeling of pride, just to be an Australian. A word that brings to mind those other words so uniquely Australian that had their origin in the trenches of Gallipoli in 1915:
Cobber, Digger, Fair Dinkum, True Blue, Mate.



Today is the anniversary of the ANZAC (Australian, New Zealand Army Corps) landing at Gallipoli at the start of WW1. Landing just before dawn the Anzacs (mostly volunteers) found themselves off course, facing steep cliffs and under attack from a very strong and well prepared Turkish resistance. It was our first major military action as part of the War and over 2000 lives were lost on the first day.

Traditionally Australian's all over the world attend solemn pre-dawn services on Anzac Day to honour not only those who were killed at Gallipoli, but in fact all men and women who have lost their lives in wars around the world.

They shall grow not old,
As we that are left grow old,
Age shall not weary them,
Nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun,
And in the morning
We will remember them.
Lest we Forget.

Hunk du Jour

One of my favourite blogs Hunk du Jour regularly do a Hunk of the Day thing where they post pics of a hunk every day. I've always loved Johnathan Rhys Meyers and this pic just goes to show why



I love the way the light is cast across his eyes, framing them as though he's peering right at you.

Found this clip whilst trawling through Google and corrrrrrrr! I wanna play with these boys. That Carlee girl from Carlee's Angels is one VERY lucky gal.



Meanwhile it's Wednesday and the long weekend is approaching. I still don't know what I'm doing but looking forward to a quiet one for the most part I think!

I don't even think this guy is an aussieBum model (I lifted these pics from a Brazillian website!).... nevertheless he's HOT and wearing aussieBum gear!
