I try to take one day at a time, however sometimes several days catch up with me at once.

Tony Nitrous

Done.








I wanted mesh to stop walking dirt, mud etc in. The mesh we used has a little bit of sag in it. I'll give it a few weeks and see how it stands up to use. Won't be hard to add some more cross braces or another layer of mesh.

I installed the new security system in the shed.  It might take a while to get it up to speed...

Tony, I've read those security systems take years to set up properly, yet they can be circumvented by a lamb chop!   :onya:  :cheers:
😎  Always looking for the next corner.  😎

Last one I had was at home when a builder started work. He loved the builder. Builder made a fuss of him, dog begged for lunch, builder topped up his water bowl. Dog was tied up as all the gates and doors were open. Builder moved him when the sun was over head they got on great.

Same the next day. Him and the builder were best mates.

3rd day I wasn't there but the builder was happy to carry on. As soon as he got in the back yard the dog got hold of him, chewed him up a fair bit. Lots of claret from his hands and legs. Dog was only 30kg but really went to town on him.

Builder was OK about it, but it cost me a LOT of beers. Dog was fine as long as I was home, not when I wasn't. Should have realised that.

I love cattle dogs. A lot of work when they are young but they really are special.
Couldn't ask for a better loyal, rough and ready best mate.

Spent the morning around the Torbay Steam Fair whilst I was in Devon last week.

I'm just full of admiration for the guys who keep these things going, you'd struggle to pick up spares on EBay.

I have a lot in the world to be grateful for, some my own doing and some just being fortunate, life's not perfect and I still have some dramas, but to roll out of bed and stand in the kitchen whilst the kettle boils and look out the window to this never fails to uplift me every morning. Moon going down over the hills as the sun lights them up on another beautiful day.

Don't have that view every morning but feel the same, as anyone living in a robust democracy really should , especially in light of whats going on in the world I feel fortunate to be able to ride down a 'safe' road (no bomb crater) and write a note without fear of persecution,
Have a great day/night
Horse,
Change is easy improvement somewhat more difficult :Dr Porsche

Absolutely. About 20 years back I made the decision to try somewhere new, various reasons, a change, a better standard of living, better weather, interesting wildlife. I looked at several countries and almost moved to Cyprus, after several visits I had work and accommodation lined up and I'd have kept an easier connection to the UK. Ended up in Qld, partly because I'd struggle to get in here after 40 but other countries were still available if it didn't work out.  Australia's far from perfect, but as you say, on a global scale our issue pale into insignificance compared to a lot of places. Very happy to be here, if the clocks were turned back I'd certainly make the same decision again.

OK the first in our series of "Shitty Places in the World to Live" we nominate South East Queensland.


This is an awful horrible place known as Fraser Island.

Seriously don't go there you'd hate it.

I mean for gawd's sake look at the place...



"Champagne Pools"

Haha basically 8n my back yard in Hervey Bay, another terrible place to live. 😆
