B2 Arrives – 7th January 2019

January 8, 2019

The day started fairly slowly with us heading into Henty House and Di getting her hooves reshod – TMI. Lovely lunch with Barb and Trevor and Fras also attached the new book case for Trevor to the wall for stability. We also used the visit to add photos of Toque and Maples to the family … More B2 Arrives – 7th January 2019

R&R – 6th January 2019

January 7, 2019

Very low key day. Spent a lot of time organizing the trip up the north coast which we commence on the 28th January. Busy contacting all our friends to fit them in on the spreadsheet and making sure we do not miss anyone. Our holiday spreadsheets have been referred to as “forced marches” and “holiday … More R&R – 6th January 2019

Toquie Fix – 5th January 2019

January 6, 2019

Being retirees we have lost the concept of what a weekend is but this morning we rehashed that lost file space and had a good sleep in. We only had one item on the agenda for today and that was to head out to Belinda and Dominques for a BBQ in northern suburb of Heidelberg. … More Toquie Fix – 5th January 2019

Hot, Hot, Hot – 4th January 2019

January 5, 2019

Well the Bureau of Meterology got it right this time. It was 34c by 9.30am and 42c by 11.00am with a very nasty wind. It is what Aussies call bush fire storm weather. Even with all the warnings that commenced 24 hours ago, they still had to rescue ten children left in cars and who … More Hot, Hot, Hot – 4th January 2019

Back on the Bikes – 3rd January 2019

January 4, 2019

Caught up on some much needed sleep and then headed out on the bikes to ride into Henty House in the city. It was just under 10k on bike path 95% of the way. Unfortunately when we got to the city we had to tackle with the traffic on the roads for three blocks. The … More Back on the Bikes – 3rd January 2019

The Day After New Years Day – 2nd January 2019

January 2, 2019

We were up at the ungodly hour of 4.55am to take Paula and Dex to the airport for their return flight to New Zealand at 8.00am. You know how you blithely say “Oh, we will take you” before thinking about it – well that was us. We will see them in NZ in April so … More The Day After New Years Day – 2nd January 2019

Moving Day – 31st December 2018

January 1, 2019

This morning when packed ourselves up and moved out of the Aura Apartment where we have been since the 20th December. We filled the little Vitara to the gunnels and left it parked in the city whilst we wandered into town to catch a movie. We went to see The Fortunates which is about the … More Moving Day – 31st December 2018
