Well, as promised, I am now posting photo's of my trip to Bundaberg.


First photo is my daughter with her leg all wrapped up.




On Wedenesday we took her to Bundaberg hospital to have her wound checked and this is the wound on the outside of her left leg. She said after the dog bit her you could see her tendons and leg bone.



The operation took two hours and my daughter said the surgeon did a great job. This is her leg from the other side, the swelling on her ankle is caused by a fractured bone.



While in Bundaberg I caught up with POP058 and Lionelgee. POP058 brought along the "Green Machine" that he bought from Banjo. That is POP058 (Paul) on the left and Lionelgee (Lionel).



Cause I had to poke my ugly mug in to prove I was here.




This is the only modification Paul has made to the vehicle. You might be interested in this Jason.



This is my SIL's Dodge Nitro, he is busily trying to load my daughter into the vehicle for the trip to Bundy Hospital.



It's a nice car, four years old and goes like a new one. The previous owner certainly looked after it. The previous owner has bought a new Dodge Nitro, same colour and he waves to my SIL when they pass on the road.

Well, that's it. Not very nice being chomped on by a mongrel, out of control dog. We have dog's (always have) but people who keep dog's like this should be banned from keeping them. The daughter has re-identified the dog as a Pit Bull cross breed. I can understand her mis-identifying the dog as a Bull Mastiff, but when a mongrel dog wants to turn your ankle into lunch, I think that would be the last thing on your mind.

It must have been a terrifying experience for her, and I am so angry, this took place.

She gets a full cast on next Wednesday (if there are no problems) which she will have to wear for 8 weeks, followed by a special "boot" that she will have to wear for a period of time. She will be off work for 15 weeks.

On the way back to Newcastle I had to change planes at Brisbane airport and V8Ian and JerryD met me there for a quick coffee.



Wonder which bloke is the ugliest, how about we toss a coin, eh, Ian. JerryD is ellergic to photo's so he (quickly) volunteered to take this piccy.

Hey Jim you must be special. Last time we sore Ian his beard was just about on his chest. He's had a trim now.

We can also put another face to a name. Lionel's.

Hello Ausfree Beards in Queensland - you must be aware of the evaporative cooling technique similar to the old canvas water bags and the old meat safe? The same rules apply to beards!

They are also handy for sieving the mosquitoes out of water and for catching those errant crumbs while eating.

I also refer to this song -

For the sake of my wife - Leeann I am following this song too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nQwLlFF1As

For a more up-beat reason to grow a beard https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0kSuZFOwFE

Kind Regards
Lionel

Very good Lionel, think I will pass on that. Had a moustache once, had it for over twenty years, but I draw the line at a beard.
