A Little On The Busy Side.

We have been enjoying more typical weather since I last posted.  Lovely sunny days, top temps in the low 20's but often with a cool blustery wind.  Get out of the wind and the days are glorious.

We were out for lunch at one of the local Surf Clubs catching up with friends on Friday.  Trish has been busy with the Arts Centre Association and getting prepared for her trip to Melbourne on Thursday for almost 2 weeks.

The footy was great over the weekend with both our teams having great wins in difficult situations.  The games were on at the same time on TV so Trish watched on free to air TV in her sewing room while I had access to my game via the pay TV in the lounge.

We have been keeping our eye open for deals on new recliners.  Mine is showing big signs of wear and tear.  It is showing some wear on seams with the leather surface being worn away.  The leather suite is getting to 10 years old now and with hot sweaty bodies the recliners, especially mine, are past their best.

The best quality recliner chairs around in shops right now are Lazy-Boys.  They are expensive but are built with top quality materials, and the best mechanism.  Over the weekend they had a big sale and we bit the bullet and have ordered a couple.  We have gone away from leather to less expensive material covering.

I haven't been over the moon with the way the current leather suite has worn.  Because of this and a substantial saving in price, we have opted for material rather than leather.

We have selected the best quality coverings and in a cinnamon color.  It will be brighter, colorful and still fit in with the remaining leather 2 seater lounge which we will keep.

We have selected two different models of chair and in different sizes.  Trish has selected the top photo model, while I have selected the lower photo model.

The only down side is they have to be built and we won't get them until almost Christmas.  We have added a full 5 year warranty to each chair on everything, stains, rips etc.

On a different topic I put a brew down on Friday, will probably bottle wash later today and bottle later in the week after Trish heads to Melbourne to catch up with family and friends on Thursday afternoon.

I continue to play around with Kodi on my PC and I am becoming more impressed the more I investigate.  It is an amazing program!

Now I am off for a bike ride.  The temp outside has just topped around 18° and is warm enough for me.
