It Is Saturday Already

Almost a full week and no updates!  Probably because it is the same old story day after day.  I wake up, go for a bike ride, have a swim and then by mid morning get into what ever is on for that day.

It may be time on the PC, it may be a few chores around the house, perhaps pop over the road to help someone out with a computer problem, maybe get involved with something from the Community Association.

And that really sums up this week.

On Monday night I chaired a Community Association Public Meeting where our speaker was the Mayor of the Sunshine Coast.  I have met him a couple of times now and we seem to get along OK.

Then there is always a "HUGE" Community Association website update to report on what happened at the meeting! Then a copy goes up on the Notice Board at the local shops.  Oh it is so busy.

We have a bit of a hassle with some youngsters around the town right now and we have been following up with local police.

There was a new brew to go on too!

For lunch on Thursday we checked out the Kings Beach Surf Club.  The club is a bit run down right now but they are undergoing renovations.  It was a bit of a "Construction Zone" there but as you can see the view was sensational. Click on the photo above left for a larger view.

There weren't any drinks on Friday.  The couple who were due to host are having a kitchen update done so it was easier to put it on hold for another week.

I have gotten into watching some golf on the TV.  So if there is a spare hour and there's golf on the telly that's what I do.

The weather remains fine but blowy most afternoons and a little unpleasant and cool (owing to the wind chill factor).  Mornings are delightful.

Last night we had a couple of showers but there wasn't a lot in the rain gauge.  It was great to give the garden a quick water and top the pool up a little but that is all. Today it will be fine again after the clouds clear.  We have been told the wind will go away for a few days as well.

My phone is telling me it can't download updates as there isn't enough space.  So I have been keeping my eyes open for a replacement with the extra space.  I don't need a lot but the 4GB currently would be heaps better of it was 8GB.  Trish's new phone is 8GB and she can download all she wants.

I was just about to order a cheap phone from China again when after checking the specs I saw it wouldn't work with the supplier we use here.  It would work fine with Optus and Vodafone but not with Telstra.

So now it is back to the drawing board on a replacement phone.

The Waeco lid broke yesterday.  Two small knobs hold the lid in place but allows it to swivel.  One of the knobs broke off, the old story about plastic going brittle with the hot weather.   I replaced the lid yesterday and was lucky they had one in stock.  He said it was the second lid he had sold this week.  So all is good again.  However I didn't like the $95 charge for the replacement.

Trish will be out all weekend as the Craft Association has another "Fair" on this weekend.  I am just about to head off to Computer Club shortly so that will get my weekend off to a good start.

There is golf on TV this afternoon and cricket tomorrow.

So it is same old ... same old!
