Good morning everyone. The forecast here is a high of 24C and rainfall tonight. The garden is looking neglected and overgrown with weeds and long grass, much is to be done. Lots of snakes around at the moment, so will have to be careful. I brought out some car parts for the 4x4 and fitting them will be fun. Nothing major....new pollen filters, new headlights bulbs and a Blackview DDPai dash cam front and rear, with a hardwire kit.

Good morning Richard, what sad news. Many of us have been through what you are going through, with our loved ones. As Steve said you are amongst friends here, drop us a line, a phone call if you need to chat. At the hospice be there for your Aunt, be there for yourself, be strong.

See Qantas has completed the longest ever commercial flight, New York to Sydney, 19 hrs 16 mins . . . . over 19 hours with your bum welded to the seat in an airplane, nah sorry, that's a punishment.

Dinner was pork belly slices roasted til the fat had gone crispy, mash, peas & pepper sauce.

I think I've found my old boss! He was more than a boss he was a mate and we worked on a lot of special projects together but we lost touch a couple of years after I left the job. I was bored last night and was looking at the DRS (Direct Rail Services) website and spotted his name in a senior position, good for him. Fired off an email.
