But yesterday we shut the house up to keep the cold southerly out. Trackie daks, warm tops and socks were the order of the day as we battened down for our own cool day. The high teens was as much as we saw Sunday morning but as the cold southerly wind died down a little the place began to warm to the low 20's.
I managed a swim for the first day or so of May but swimming is now well behind me. I will have to wait until AFL footy Grand Final Day in September before I make it back into the pool again. The breezy and cold outbreak has also put a halt to bike riding in the shorter term. I now wait till after 8 am and the sun has begun its work prior to even considering heading out for a ride.
But things cruise along as normal with not a lot happening about the place.
Mow the lawns, put out the rubbish bins, do stuff for the Community Association, mess around with my Tech stuff and learn more about Plex. Though I still keep up with Kodi stuff, Plex has become my go to application to play back movies and TV series.
Speaking of which we have just completed watching the BBC police drama series "In The Line Of Duty". After some ordinary stuff to watch lately the TV series was real shining light.
Of course there is another home brew on and a bottling is due this week sometime.
The best restaurant we found up here back in the early days was a place called Spirit Of Tibet in Mooloolaba. But as Mooloolaba went ahead, rent prices forced the guy out. He setup briefly at a couple of other places but was never open for more than a few weeks before something or other happened.
As it turns out he has opened up again but this time in the strangest of places which is partly why we found him so hard to find. He runs his restaurant as a part of the Forest Glen Big4 Caravan Park (photo above). It is a great size, heaps of space and the food is just as sensational as ever.
Three other couples I have met from Computer Club and ourselves checked it out the other night. The food was a resounding hit for everyone with people who are not that fond of spicy food absolutely loving it!
The trouble is the restaurant is a good 30 minutes drive away. However our friends enjoyed the food so much we will all get back there again. We had some great nights there when it was in Mooloolaba and everyone we have taken there just loves the food. He makes a tasty but spicy chilli sauce which needs to used carefully. But boy it is nice.
The Computer Club group are a great group to go out with. All of us are retireds and have come from interstate to live around Caloundra. Previously occupations included the merchant navy, hair dressers or driving trains and then moving into lead lighting. They are a diverse group.
And we all enjoy watching our movies and TV series as well.
Trish and I are both well and keeping pretty busy. Life is pretty good actually!
