    Any that are national parks are Steve but apparently the State owned boat ramps are off limits too.

    Hello All,

    I have an old Queenslander - a weatherboard house. It is just like painting the Sydney Harbour bridge. You start working on one side and by the time you reach the other end, its time to go back to the start. Torepeat the process all over again and ...

    Plus, two acres of previously drought affected grass that now, :"after the rains came"... to add to this copious amounts of heat and moisture - now the grass needs mowing twice in one week. Well it looks like it needs mowing twice a week.

    I also have a couple of Series Land Rovers that I am working on, for therapy.

    Kind regards
    Lionel

    When we eventually get home I plan to dig over the neglected vegie garden and start again. I also have several outside walls to repaint.

    It makes no difference to me - except we can't do our daily drive to the coffee roaster to have a cappuccino. I'll still be wasting too much time on the computer instead of tidying up my double garage (which has never had one of our cars in it in the 38 years we've lived here).

    I should clean it out and sell a lot of the stuff in there - especially our late son's stuff (he died 12 years ago). One day - maybe.

    Yes, Feb 2008.

    Time flies. Our daughter was due to start her medical degree at UNE, Armidale, on the day of his funeral but deferred for a year. Now she's been a doctor for several years and about to start a new job at a Melbourne hospital - if she wasn't self-isolated after returning from Japan last week.

    Hi,
    Built a deck we started in January, rejuvenating a garden bench, bit of landscaping.
    Garage needs a clean-up to get the car out of the weather, Defender needs some electrical mods.
    I think the Mrs has a list of stuff for me as well.
    Pretty much same - same but different really.
    Cheers

    Now I know where to get veggies when Aldi runs out
