    It takes a while to get used to new cars, Obelixx. Is it far for you to drive? 
    What a nuisance.
    Hubby has been asked to help out with the Bega fire. Too far, and he’s too tired after the last three days of dragging large heavy hoses all around fires, so he’s not volunteered to help. That fire has been going from Bemboka towards Bega for a couple of months, but it’s to rough to get into that country.

    Hmmm wondered that Pat but it’s such a trek up to town and I have an app in ten days time. This is not a day to be travelling☹️

    The next bit (in the fine print) is they want 6 large fire trucks for night shift.  They’ve got to be joking.

    Morning all. 
    Very Breezy here, but I think that's just our normal level of breezyness returning.

    I think she comes across well in front of the camera, but I'm biased because  I think she's lovely.

    Hi all.
    Very heavy storm in the night woke me up, but only lasted about half an hour, now just windy and damp.
    LP, I think you should get your eyes checked before your booked appointment.
    Hoping to start a mammoth bulb planting session today.

    Yes LP - get an earlier apt if you can.  Not worth risking eyesight.

    Pat - A pedestrian bollard is not exactly invisible or a surprise feature.   Maybe it's a man thing.   OH swiped both wing mirrors in the first week of Harry's life with us.   Still has no idea where they are most of the time.   La Roche can be anything from 20 to 25kms away depending on where he's dropped so an hour there and back.  It's the timing that's a pain as we/I walk the dogs for an hour around 6:30ish and then set the watering on at 8pm (local rules) while we/I have dinner.

    I  agree Lilyp. Don’t muck around with eye probs, especially after you surgery.
