Judy, love your story. Cookie, good idea to keep the fellows off the streets.
Think I must be sick, haven’t bought anything lately.

Yes, you’ll get over your ‘illness’ in the near future Chookie.

Bought 2 slabs of beer as thanks to 2 of our neighbours who finally got our security gate back in working order. That is now 3 neighbours who have combined their skills and knowledge to repair it.  We are so lucky to have such good neighbours.

That’s lovely Chookie. It’s so good to have great neighbours.

It arrivedI’ve had a great time setting it up and steamed some asparagus to go with our beef roast.

This made me chuckle Chookie.

Glad you decided to buy the TM6 Cookie. It looks good on your workbench.😁

Is it quieter than the TM31 cookie?

Well done Cookie, lots of experimenting ahead.

Yes Judy it is much quieter also it seems very smooth in everything it does.
KAtie I set it up myself. I did the 5 so figured I could do this. I haven't told my consultant that I have it yet.

My nephew is getting married next week and we have been invited. It is cocktail dress. I cant see myself in anything gorgeous and strappy with 5 inch heels. This morning I made a list of places where I may find something suitable. A new little shop has opened up at our shopping centre for clothes so I thought I would start there. I'm amazed. I picked up a floaty red top that is perfect. I love red and I will match my car. She showed me some trousers that were the correct length with small silver diamantes on the hems. So I bought those too. I ended up paying about a third of what I had expected to. They are even made in Australia and I feel very comfortable in them.

Wow, you’re going to look stunning cookie.  You didn’t give yourself much time to find something so were very lucky to hit the jackpot at the very first place you went.  Please get DD to take a photo of you in your outfit.
