Well after a very relaxing weekend in Echuca looking after the grand daughter on the Friday a Bute day walking the streets and taking in a movie Saturday " jasper Johnes " I am about a third of the way through the talking book so it was interesting how much more descriptive the book is, any way enjoyed the movie, easy drive home on Sunday unpacked the van and wound up the tv arial because we couldn't get a signal under the tree in Echuca and still couldn't get on here so I we're going to work on it today but ended up doing other more pressing jobs, then this evening it started to rain so though I would put it in the shed, yep you guessed it forgot to put the bloody thing down and backed into the low shed arrrrrrr ripped it off the roof fortunately no damage to the van roof though, can't say the same for the poor old arial so it looks like I'll be trolling through the search button archives on which new arial to get, don't want pay tv just free to air.

Hi Dunmowin and Dougwe.
I was looking at the forecast for good old hometown Townsville and there could be some weather arriving over north QLD from the Coral Sea in about a week. I hope its not too bad as I am just about to put the house on the market. Tomorrow is MRI day so they can order the spare parts for my TKR at the Mater next month. So Dougwe the twins will be safe I can't run too fast on crutches.
Safe travels to all

Hey Doug! The weather God's are telling me you might be better off staying in Vic a bit longer?

Too late HB, no longer in VIC. A semi slow move through NSW then slow right down when I hit QLD for a while. Hope to be in Townsville early May.
Gee, I can follow the rugby without looking over my shoulder now
Keep Safe on the roads and out there (I'll try too)
