Giveaway…
So it’s been a while, hasn’t it?
Since I have had a giveaway here on this humble little bush blog…
I reckon I am probably due.
Or you are… for putting up with the random blogging going on here lately.
Festive season spirit, and all that.
I found this little series of pics just now – taken a few days ago as we drove into town for a farewell for some friends of ours who are leaving the district (*sad face*).
It’s a big male roo who was feeling fairly laid-back about crossing the road.
And I thought: they might not be award-winning shots (taken through the windscreen of a very dirty car and all) but they ARE kinda colourful and groovy in a weird-Oz-creature kinda way.
Then I thought: what can I do to tie in with my vaguely planned giveaway?
Then it struck me.
(The thought, not the roo.)
WORD BUBBLE.
I am not really sure what goes through a kangaroo’s head when they encounter humans, but let’s not let a lack of real scientific understanding stop us from trying.
If you can make me giggle (the most) with a word bubble for our big grey roo, you will win the choice of:
A) A Bush Babe calendar (will be a collector’s item – almost completely sold out!)
B) two 5×7 ” prints of your choice of photos from this blog.
But wait… that’s not all!
(No steak knives, although now I think of it, it could be appropriate for future giveaways!)
I also have some very groovy stubbie coolers and bookmarks here courtesy of rural writer, the fabulous Fleur McDonald. I’ll be adding them into the parcel for our winner, and perhaps a couple of runners-up too.
So go on….
What do you think Big Roo might be thinking?
Or contemplating?
Or scheming?
The wilder and crazier the better.
Enter as often as you like.
I’ll be closing entries on midnight Tuesday (Oz time)…
🙂

ENTRIES CLOSED… CHECK BACK SOON FOR WINNER/S.

Just move your car a little bit. I can’t quite tell from the reflection in your windscreen if my bum looks big … or not.

“Directions? I’m not stopping to ask no-one for directions. This IS the way, just a little short cut here, and down this road just a tad and across that gully and over the hill and we’ll be able to smell the place by then… C’mon darl, trust me. Darl? * turns around looking* Darl???”
Margie from New York
This sounds a lot like my boyfriend. It seems all men are the same with directions regardless of where they come from.

Kangaroos are one of my favourite things about Australia, I LOVE them.
This one may be thinking: “I wonder why these people keep taking photos of me. Have they never seen a Kangaroo before!?”
