Cookie, isn’t it nice when that sort of thing happens!

DJ, lovely to hear from you. Must let you know that my email has changed. megantuffley@gmail.com.

Would love to hear from you again.

Marina, your exercise class sounds like fun! I just started seniors Zumba today and loved it. I also do seniors yoga.



A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

Cookie, nice when you meet people who are easy to talk to.
CC, that is a nuisance. 
Djinni, that is a lot of work and disappointing for you to have a big project so near.
GC coming for dinner tonight. Will need to be creative in what I cook so as to cover all needs. One fussy eater, one vegetarian and 2 on Blood Sugar Diet. So looks like roast chicken and lots of veggies. Individual Apple tarts.

Judy, DH had to measure the car trailer to make sure it would fit!!!! He has gone to pick it up today. For once the bank transferred the money in 24 hours instead of 3 days.

Here is DH's latest toy, although I will be the one towing it with a Model A on it. You can actually see him opening up the gates to put it away.

Wow, that trailer looks new. Not showing Ral as he will want one. Don’t think I could drive a car pulling that Cookie.  You are very smart.
When we shifted in to Invermay we were told by previous owners that our neighbours on one side talked to no one. This doesn’t seem to be true. They do keep to themselves but so do we. Ral has had several conversations with them at the front gate.

That looks like new Cookie.  A very good buy.

We are getting ready for another trip to Narooma, next week I hope.  I have to have a colonoscopy next Tuesday and then we are free to go.
The  man who said it can't be done should not interupt the woman doing it.

Perhaps the previous owners had had a falling out with the neighbours Chookie. Most people are fairly friendly, although you have to be careful as you don't want them at your place constantly.

The trailers previous owner said he had only used the trailer once, and as you say it is more or less new.
Chookie I can't reverse the trailer at all!

Good luck with the colonoscopy next week, Mab.  Hope it is a routine one.

Cookie, I think you may be correct about the previous owners.
Yesterday I did a clean out of my Summer wardrobe.   Have also been hand washing many of our good wooden jumpers.
Report on Blood Sugar Diet.   Weight dropping off and Blood Sugar dipping slowly.   Not as much energy as I usually have and needing a sit down in the afternoon. Big bonus is that I am sleeping better.  The food is tasty and I am not cooking as much.  I am able to do 30 minutes on walking machine at a faster speed.
Only need to stick to it for 8 weeks.

Well done Chookie, that’s marvellous.
I had my hair cut this morning. It always feels much tidier after.
