An Old Plumber, An Ex-Carer, An Amateur Poet, Words From The Heart
Gina Comes to Geelong
Gina, my internet pen friend, from Kaula Lumpur, is here with me in Geelong, to see one of Australia’s best authors, Tim Winton present his new book, “Juice,” at the Geelong Library’s Dome Auditorium on Thursday evening, and we are so looking the event. In the meantime during Gina’s four-day stay here in Geelong, me and Frankie are her tourist guides …
Box Office Cafe for Lunch and then to Buckley Falls
At The Australian Wool Museum
There will be more photos Tomorrow (Wednesday) “Gina Comes to Geelong”
G'day, and welcome to my blog site. My name is Ivor Steven, I live in Geelong, Australia. I'm an ex-industrial chemist, and a retired plumber, and a former Carer of my wife(Carole), for 30 years, who suffered from severe MS. I Write poetry about those personal thoughts, throughout and beyond my life as a Carer.
I've been blogging for over 2 years, and writing poems for 19 years. Of course a lot of my poems are about my favourite subject Carole, but since I've been blogging my writings have become quite varied, humourous, mystical, observational, and even a few monster/horror poems.

Hi Gina!! So nice to see our dear Ivor with his penpal at Geelong. I’m very envious: you get to spend real live hands-on time with Frankie … and Ivor, of course! Dear Ivor, lovely pix and text; sadly the video didn’t play for me. π€πΆπππΌββοΈπβπΌπ
Excellent, dear Ivor! Enjoy your time in Geelong. That’s a terrific S&G song. Thanks for letting me know which one it was …. also known as the 59th St Bridge Song, which is right here in NY! π₯³πππ
