The parcel from the last post has been posted to W.A.
Kate Arj and family are expected home mid next week and Trish has already put in an offer to fly down and help Kate with the unpacking!
Their car has been removed from our friend's garage, has been serviced, a new battery fitted, some repairs done to bring it up to 'roadworthy condition and is ready to go.
The car is booked in for re registration on Friday of next week which is about the same time as the tenants are leaving the house.
Their stuff from Saudi should arrive back also on the 12th. They arrive back in Melbourne mid afternoon Wednesday August 10th.
So it is all ready to go!
The other night we watched a movie A Hologram For The King which is a Tom Hanks movie about a guy trying to sell some IT stuff for a new city being built in Saudi. It tells the story of the problems he endures with Saudi Bureaucracy and Saudi customs and restrictions. It seems to us to cover what we recall of our time in Saudi.
The Olympics have begun in Rio but the time difference makes viewing the Games a little difficult. We are 13 hours ahead of Rio time so prime night time events happen here mid to late morning.
Still it would be more fun to watch than the cricket currently coming from Sri Lanka where Australia's efforts are best described as woeful and pathetic!
But we have the footy this weekend where my team plays the bottom team and Trish's team (the top team) plays an opposition from the bottom half of the ladder.
It should be a pain free TV watching weekend for us.
