Hope your world is happy.
Today sail my radio sail boat for few hours then had lunch with my lady.
Then went to the movies. Second Best Marigold Hotel well I really enjoy it.
They have done a good job on it and it was a great afternoon sharing it with friends.
But tonight packing a few things in the caravan I reached over to use the water and the water pump not working found a blown fuse then blew a second, now I know what I am doing at first light tomorrow morning looking for a electric al fault.
I thought I was ready to go after having the van repaired but guess not. Bxxxa.

Gives the whole system a shock when things come on quite suddenly, sleep is the best thing, we heal while we sleep. You look after yourself, don't go running around in this heat. We are inside with air on.

Now at Mussellbrook camped in the show ground relaxing.

I'm camped at home,preparing to go on road shortly. The wind storm we had
dropped half of the paperbark tree in the back yard. Cleaned it all up, more wood for the fire.
SWMBO suggested that the rest should come down. Two trunks left both over 40ft high.
Out with the chain saw and ropes and down they came. Trouble is the 24" chain saw got heavier and heavier,
I have a 30 year old brain in a 73 year old body. Brain said simple, body said this is hard yakka.
So now I am recuperating, had a shower 'cos my head was leaking,sawdust, not sure whether it was internal or external.
All that's left to do is to tie up all the small stuff and put it out for collection. Mondays job.

Hi Radar, Is Mt. Hutton a state forest?
Hi Peterpan, Wow. you had a day and a half. You deserve a coldy.
Hi Aussiepaul. Where is Kyreton? In the high country or near the coast?
Strop is recovering slowly. We have to move so our son has volunteered on Tuesday to come and move us. When one of you is ill , that is the last thing you will want to do. such is llife.

Hi Rocket.
Mtn Hutton is a very old area to the west of Camden, farming community, 60 k area with about dozen homes spread over about 2 ks.
The next village up is The Oaks, then Oakdale, Nattai and then into Burragarang Valley where the back water to the Warragamba Dam which is Sydney water supply.
The families at the reunion moved up out of the valley when the water board was flooding the area for the dam. Ralph.

Kaid, We may get to Waruma Dam. You are game going north when a cyclone is threatening.
Jules47, Congratulations on your new grandson. you lucky duck. We are now at 7th day. We are busy Thursday, Friday but after that come over for a cuppa. Thankyou for asking, Strop is on the mend. If he gets constipated now all he has to do is eat fat and no more problem. I guess he will lose lots of weight. his weight is going down and dreaded mine is going up. thems the breaks.

She's been in 11 days, and might be coming home tomorrow. However, Pete, [Ontos45] was taken to Hospital this morning with Pneumonia. As I said elsewhere, it's been a hectic few weeks. First Marcia, then all this.
My vehicle knows it's own way to the Hospital now.

I arrived back in Monto with new windscreen and minus 2 teeth. I am camped at the Showgrounds where I have volunteered with Blaze Aid. Will be heading out on the fence repair team tomorrow.
