Ready To Head South

It has been quite hectic around our place the last couple of days. It can get like this just before we both head away. We leave on Thursday for 3 weeks in Melbourne. All the jobs that have been put off are now hastily being completed.

Trish had a fellow Stitcher around yesterday (Monday) to look over how they do their Newsletter. The lady was after an anti-virus program for her computer so that was where I came in. Friends Gordon and Anne from Melbourne were up for their annual holiday. They were staying along with relatives at a lovely resort at Moffat Beach, about 10 minutes from us. They popped in yesterday afternoon to touch base with us.

Today (Tues) Trish has her half day as a volunteer at the Tourist Information Centre and this afternoon she has a doctor's appointment. She had her hair done yesterday afternoon!

Good friend Paul Harrison has been around today with his nail gun and finished off the fences we had put up over the last few months. I had temporarily 'screwed' them in place. Paul's nailgun finished the job off nicely. They look great in these two photos.

On Sunday evening a neighbour popped in with his new Computer tower. I spent a couple of hours Sunday night putting software on for him so at least he can use it.

Computer club was busy Saturday morning swapping files all over the place and helping members sort out some problems.

Both our footy teams had successful matches over the weekend.

I have been online an purchased tickets for the footy in Melbourne Friday night. I have also secured two passes into the better areas of the MCG for guests for the Hawthorn Collingwood match in a couple of weeks. Trish will use one and I am not sure about the other just yet.

Trish has doctor's appointment this afternoon, we are both off to the Chiropractor Wednesday afternoon and we are catching up with Gordon and Anne for an Indian meal tonight!

I am almost looking forward to getting to Melbourne for a rest.

Another glorious day today! Our backyard is quite protected from the breeze so it is a wonderful 26 degrees out there right now after a brisk 9 degrees overnight!
