Well, Mrs Aus and I spent the day helping our youngest daughter move from one house to another. The daughter and her partner are renting a place over at New Lambton, not far from the Lambton pool. An old place, but it has been done up, the owner has spent close to $100,000 on it and it looks very nice inside and out.

Being an old bloke I am now "pooped" to say the least after lifting, fridges, washing machines, clothes dryers, lounge suites, etc, etc, etc. Just as well there were some younger blokes there so I could "supervise" later in the day when my "puff" ran out.

Mrs Aus, helped our daughter with the crockery,cleaning up and organising us "useless males"

Mrs Aus will be back tomorrow, to help with the clean up of the old digs, I will be back at work!!
