Wooda been an honour and pleasure Jim (and a darn good excuse to have a day off work) and meet up with Jerry and Kev again.

The eagle has landed

Yep, I'm here, using my grandsons computer, met Paul and Lionel at Bundy airport yesterday. Boy, what a rough landing, flippin 'éck was nearly thrown out of my seat. Roughest landing I have ever experienced.

My daughter has to go to Bundy hospital at 3pm this arvo for a check up, I will be with her to see what the docs say.

Guess what my SIL turned up in to pick me up....................................a Dodge Nitro, crikey what an embarrassment, in front of a couple of Landy nuts too (guess I'm on the right Thread) but having said that it was a nice vehicle, it was four years old in top nick with 140k's in board and drove like a new vehicle.

Hope to catch up with Lionel and Paul for a coffee today or tomorrow.

Had a cup of coffee with LionelGee and Pop058 today and a long conversation. Paul brought the "Green Machine"along and I got some piccies which might interest you Jason. The "Green Machine"still looks good.

Went to the Bundaberg Base hospital with my daughter this afternoon while she had the dressings changed on her wound. It looks nasty but my daughter says it is improving on what it was like last week. There is swelling on the other side of her ankle from the broken bone.

I will post some photo's when I return home.

I just spoke to Jim, we're meeting for coffee tomorrow.

Jay, my son-in-law will pick me up.

Get this........the woman who owns the dog blamed Kim for not ringing first. I spoke to Kim this morning and she said the women is not her regular client and there was a warning on her job sheet but she didn't see it. When she did eventually look at it the warning it did not say the dog was vicious, only that there was a dog on the premises. With her own clients she knows of these warnings and they are usually for little yappy dogs that get locked in a room when she arrives. When she arrived at these premises, the whole house was open and the dog came charging out the door and bailed her up. Must have been terrifying for her.

The dogs owner said they kept this dog for protection.

I had savage dogs chase me when I was young. Learened if I bent down and pretended to pick up a stone and get ready to through it they often ran away

Yeah, a bit hard when you are standing at the front door of a house and the dog charges out and catches you by surprise.
