Lovely photos Gert shame about the weather as Queenstown is stunning with clear blue sky.

What an amazing old car cookie. Is your DH going to restore it?

OMG Courton.....I bungee jumped in queenstown a few years ago. Does that mean my appendix is not where it should be???

Lovely gesture Gert. This forum has some amazingly kind people.

I think when you are 84 yrs old things don't bounce back to normal as quickly or as well!!

Lovely photos, Gert 😃

I don't have an appendix. So it should be safe to go bungee jumping?!?

Shopping with Mum and she actually bought an AF.  This is Big for my Mum.  Now to convince her to get a Thermie.  She said she would come to my demo!
DD has already named ours T1 and T2, DD2 say "that's original!"

Not this one. He has one half done, one licensed and we use it, and a third in lots of pieces.

Great news about you DS BZB. He will have a great time.

We just arrived home from a lovely meal  at our local Indian restaurant with DD2, her husband and  their four children. A late Father's Day celebration as they couldn't make it to our family Father's Day dinner at a Spanish restaurant on Sunday.  All my GK's love spicy food which is great as we can take them anywhere  and they will eat well.

How wonderful BZB. And MF  we had a great meal last night right here in our room as we had picked up,a magnificent platter of local food from the winery we visited yesterday. The chef normally does not do takeaway but I convinced him I needed or have more of a taste from his menu. The leftovers will be for brekkie as soon as Dh stops snoring . Can't wait to open the curtain when the sun comes up which should be soon as it is  about 0630.

How long will,the restoration take cookie?

Glad you enjoyed the winery yesterday Gert. The food there is always lovely and the staff so friendly, helpful and efficient. Husband and wife team in the kitchen and been there for years. He posts some of his recipes on the website.
Hope the sun shines for you today  ;D

I went and saw Tenina in action last night in Mandurah had such a great time, and the food was amazing 😄
I always feel good after seeing her in action. I have never tried Kale before and the salad she made was fantastic, so going to make this today and definitely the yummy cheesy cauliflower breadstick 😁
