Got my eyes checked John, just needing stronger glass's for reading, all the better to see my art my dear biggrin biggrin it rained at greens today, no laughing John, it's a beautiful night. Thinkn about going to SA after the 24th April till July, not sure after that ?? Talk soon John, from patty

Yes Patty that is him alright "the lurker'. Haven't had much rain here only caught half a bucket and the days have been around 30 degrees with night just under 20.

That must be why I go north for the winter. Look forward to hearing from you, I will be heading south after August so hopefully we will catch up then.

My eyes have been better with the daily drops and new bifocals, can now read smaller print and am reading those Wilbur Smith novels that Marg brought to Greens for me.

Thats great news John. Glad you held on to them till you got your eyes sorted.
Should see you in about two weeks or less.
Just spent a wonderful couple of days in the Redcliffe area catching up with a friend in Clontarf and Beth54 in Scarborough and also Pam, Travelbug, who came over for the day.
Now back to Hervey Bay for doc appointments before heading north.

Forgot to mention, try to read them in the order they were written, much easier to follow...

John was already hooked on Wilbur Smith. He got me hooked on them too. The last set I gave him I numbered them in order after I read them.
I also keep a list of all his books in my wallet and mark them off after I've read them and passed them on to John.

Always good to meet friends and friends of friends, Gail saw me after a paddle and introduced herself and told me of your request. She was able to get me some honey when they went to town, so that was good. Met Vic later up at the bus.

Will be happy to meet Trevor and Rhonda when they visit next week.

Thanks for the thought Barrie have you any plans to visit Wuruma yourselves?

Sorry we missed you Mike, might see you on the road somewhere, as we are heading west also, but will go across the Nullabor. We are heading to a GN meet up in October, just north of Perth, details are in the " get together" sub forum, check it out.

Whilst not a forum member Syd has arrived and moved in the area with us, Paul and I met Syd last year at Babinda and subsequently I travelled south with him. He has been mentioned in many of the posts that I put up during that trip.

Welcome Syd, he was in Condoblin when I phoned him a couple of weeks ago so he has made quite a trip to join us.

John

yeoeleven · Guru

I know you are all agog waiting for news from Wuruma, well here it is.

Syd, Glenn and Paul moved on today, Paul heading home to Gracemere. Syd and Glenn are heading forTheodore

Lockie and me arrived a couple of days ago, Kieren and his round up dog Lockie.

Room for more here,

John.

John , you may be interested to know I have just spent the last two days camped beside Dave and Debbie with their dog Mini in a caravan and Rob in a small motorhome at Theresa Creek Bridge.
They met up at Wuruma Dam and decided to travel together a while. They all remember you well from their time there. They are not Greynomad members but I said I would pass on a hello to you.
