It's Thursday

There is very little if any new 'news'.  Our good neighbours at the end of the court (Brian and Edna) have had their house on the market for some time.  They have recently sold so are in the midst of downsizing from  5 bedroom house to a small 3 bedroom terrace place.

The photo is taken from the Real Estate Agent's website.

We are assured it is much larger inside than this photo indicates.  It has been described as surprisingly roomy inside.

There is a lot of tossing stuff away or just getting rid of it at minimal cost for them at the moment.

Brian has become a techno convert despite being in his 80's.  I keep them up to speed with movies, TV Series etc and he has become a big fan of Netflix.

His PC is over 4 years old now so they have decided to downsize it as well to a laptop. Yesterday he had an i5 standard specced laptop delivered for a little over $500 which is a pretty good deal.  At this very moment it is updating to Windows 10.

I will transfer all the stuff over from the desk top PC to the new laptop over the next few days for him.

We have just had a rain change come through which turned out to be a bit of a fizzer.  We only managed a couple of mls in the gauge and there may not be any more to follow.

Days have been in the mid 20's and very comfortable.

We just finished watching a BBC Crime series called "The Missing" which was very enjoyable.  Keep your eye out for it.

My Android TV box has arrived in Brisbane so I am guessing delivery will be tomorrow at the earliest but more likely early next week.

Russell and Irene continue to head back to their Drouin home in their caravan.  They have arrived in Griffith where they will spend a few days.  Russ was glowing in his reports of Griffith in relation to local produce from the wineries there.
