Thread: Embarrassment

Hi Jase oh and others

Thanks for the update, it must be a very worrying time for you both, until things get sorted, hopefully soon though. I like you new FB pic, nice to see Karen smiling in it Maybe you should post it here.

Mrs hh

How is everyone going ? We are all ok here. I've been working on Harry a bit. Also made a small engine stand to hold the gearbox as I'm sick of lifting it around to get to things. Also made a frame on wheels for the bulkhead for the same reason but also easier to work on & also gives me somewhere to stand it to paint. Worked out well. The disco is due for rego on Tuesday so have to give it a bit of a clean up. Cody has another work placement thing this week for school. He is doing it at a cafe in Charlestown square to do with his hospitality glass I think. He is a bit nervouse as he will be serving out the front this time. Last time he did this was at Glendale at a resuruant & was out the back helping prepair food & dishes. Karen is still yet to get into the specialist. Fred is doing well at work & gets lots of hours. Her car is due for rego to so it's going to the brother inlaws on Tuesday for a service & tune up & a pink slip. We had to get a rental certificate this week for centre link. So the realestate sent us a ledger of since we have been here in this house just on 5 years & the total in rent sofar is $80 grand. Both got a shock at the amount. Shame we can't buy somewhere. That's about it for us. We have a new home phone & Internet provider now in Optus. Seems to be working ok sofar.
I'm about to run a competition on the bushcraft group I'm in & part of the admin on face page. That will be interesting.
Our dinning chairs finally collapsed so got some newish ones & picked up a nice round table off gumtree for $10 at a deceased estate.needs to be sanded & re varnished but will do that later as we need it. A table cloth works great for now.

Good to hear from you Jason. I will be over to visit you soon.

I have to go to the doctors on Tuesday to get some stitches out from where they took a mole out of my leg last week. Nothing major, the GP did it in his surgery last week and put in four stitches.
Try and get over to see you after the visit to the docs.

Hello All,

Well my contract finished early and I did the snail trick with a Uhaul medium sized furniture trailer towed with my ailing VN Commodore. Some prayers to God and I rolled stately into Bundaberg last night at 7:30 real time.

I reckon that it is a case of "no more shall I roam". Mostly because living away from your wife of 28 years is not a fun experience. Also the cost of running two households makes even a well paying job an average paying one as far as savings goes.

First priority now is to concentrate on finishing the PhD. Then I will either try and make another go of being self-employed or get a job that may not be the one of my dreams. However, running one household on a not too flash wage will most likely see me getting further ahead than the past six months wound up to be financially.

Plus there is another bonus - I am back with my Land Rovers .

Oh and I had plenty of space left in the trailer to pick up various Land Rover bits and pieces I had stored at my sister's place. So now all my crap is located all in one place; and I am at that place too

My apologies to Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz....

"There is no place like home."
"There is no place like home."
"There is no place like home."
Lots of clicks (Klms) on the Commodore and bingo. I am back in Kansas (Bundaberg)


Kind Regards
Lionel
