Despite numerous hold ups and appointments we are finally hitting the road in the morning for a few weeks. Haven't got time to travel far enough North for good weather but at least we'll be away.

Got notification in the Mail today from WORLD PROPERTY ALLOCATION, that I'm the lucky recipient of either [my choice] a 2011 AUDI Q7 SUV, valued at $ 54,200.00, or a Cheque to that Value. Just have to send them $25.00. Needless to say, it's already in the rubbish. Cheers, Sheba.

Hi all, Esmeralda is back from the plastic surgeons and looking rather spiffy

- or would do with a clean . Also, today I did the Tow Ed course at Sandown and can now reverse in a circle and a straight line - and can park in a site. By the way - do I ask at the CP office for the orange cones??

The Great Wall Motor Company has released it's prototype of a new MH . The power plant is lacking hill power but has low emmissions so Aunt Julia and Uncle Bob are over the moon with that aspect and may consider lifting the import duty.

When the shearing sheds are silent and the stock camps fallen quiet When the gidgee coals no longer glow across the outback night And the bush is forced to hang a sign, 'gone broke and won't be back' And spirits fear to find a way beyond the beaten track When harvesters stand derelict upon the wind swept p...

I thought there had to be a connection Jules. Well, I just heard a Vet on the news advising horse owners not to feed them under fruiting trees, and to keep their feed and water under cover. Don't understand why they don't think of this themselves. The guy up the road from me, still has the feed and wa...
