Back in Brisbane (again)

After leaving the tranquility of Kangaroo Valley, we arrived in North Haven on Friday night 22 Oct, in preparation for the Ulysses RV club AGM on Saturday. The happy hour on Friday night was an eye opener, the amount of people present was amazing. We were told of a club member, believed to be in his 80's, who had stepped out of his van and broke both ankles. (Three plates and seven screws later). The club members from Mudgee organised for another club member to fly his plane up from Mudgee and bring a driver with him so as to be able to fly the patient and his wife back to Mudgee whilst leaving the other member to drive their rig home for them. That's what I call club comradeship.

Sunday morning after Saturdays AGM, we hit the road for Qld. After eight hours and a bit over 600 km, we arrived at Burpengary to yet another house sit. This time for a week, just to help out a mate who decided to go to Phuket (Thailand) at the last moment, for a holiday. Monday, 1st Nov, saw us back in Brisbane with our beloved Honda Goldwing. We had been without it for so long, thanks John for looking after it for us.

Another house sit, this time in Warner, a northern suburb of Brisbane. We are looking after two Long Legged Jack Russel Terriers who are spoilt to bits by their owners. This two weeks in Warner will allowed us to catch up with old friends and most importantly, with our kids. On completion of the sit, we will be headed for Ballarat to visit family and spend Christmass with Mum.

That's about it for now.

Love to all.

Don't for get to "keep the shiny bits up".

All the best.
