Well Christmas is Nigh, Bah! Humbug!
Just got the tug back after being fitted out with Black Widow drawer system, Red Arc dual battery system, Anderson plug, aux plugs and second battery in the rear for fridge. The guys at TJM Cairns have done a beautiful job on the ford; it definitely gives you much more room and versatility in the back. The drawer system seems very strong and robust.
Sister Sylvia finally made it up from the deep south after an eventful trip. Flat tyres, running hot radiator in the Merc, Keys locked in van (yep twice ha! ha!) and a coming together with a kangaroo which tore out the trailer wiring from the van, bugger!!
That took a day out of her schedule awaiting an auto elec in West Wylong..
Still she is here now all safe and sound and trip number one under her belt, it will only get easier from here on. Healthy breakfast on the first day. (I saw her getting fresh mangoes for breaky from the tree.)Champagne etc for dinner tonight.
We have booked at our favourite restaurant for Xmas dinner and have just seen the menu, yummmm!! Looks great. This together with a champagne or three should just do the job, a nanna nap after will finish the day off just fine.
We installed a “doggie door” for Misty so she can please herself wether she goes in or out of the van, she picked it up quite quickly really, marvellous what a treat on the wrong side of the door will do!!
John and Sandy have left the park to drop their gear in to their new house before travelling south to be with family for Xmas, have a safe trip guys and we will look forward to your return in the New Year. These two are great people and we will miss the afternoon drinks etc with them. It is very quiet in the park as I said before but also it is very nice, we have more birds and wild life around this time of year. I planted a tomatoe plant and had a great first bunch, then the catapillars had a great second bunch between them!! Bugger again.
Just had a call from some very good and long time friends (way back when we first got hitched, loooong time ago) more later.
OK that’s all folks, to all our readers have a very happy and safe Xmas and new year and above all live life!!
