Postcards from home

[Alan]

Was having coffee with old mate Scotty this morning at the café when his phone rings ... it is his wife ... she tells him she hopes that "Alan" is a good root because he is absolutely no chance at home.

He had forgotten today was their 18th anniversary.

Needless to say he was out of luck on both fronts.

So Alan......where are you and Scotty's Wife having lunch? Remember the old song mate? "Don't you ever let a chance go bye" lol

Besides, what sort of a bloke would let his best mate's Wife miss out on her anniversary?? That would be wrong!! 😀

 

[Alan]

He's got 4 daughters, you would think one of them would have given him a tip.. sounds like a female quilt conspiracy. They were probably down at the shopping mall with the credit cards before he got home.

That's what happens when you live in a petticoat Government. They would have been conspiring from last week sometime. Here's a tip for Scotty, if they start browsing catalogues, check the date!

That way, the missus can't scream hard done by. And she won't have a chance to nagdammit!

nagdammitt, (He He) out-globalled global.

He's not Scotty Palmer is he? I knew a bloke once from NSW and he used to knock around with a Mrs Palmer and her 4 Daughters. Jeez he was a wanker!

So mother nature lifted the skirts and gave us a boost, and reason to smile in a sad week for Oz and the world.

We have our own "beach" here... Not as great as the beaches in Manly perhaps, but when it's belting down 40 + degrees, we're grateful






Here's one of my former locals (there's been a few). There's 5 pubs in a 200 m stretch down that way. It even has a maroon-n-whitish facade now.




Some beautiful n historic churches here
.





You too can live here (over the road from the river) with stunning water views, for about 400k






A couple of other pics of the river from further afield.








And a friend (not that sort o' friend) today with her dog Taylor. That's actually a Manly-hoodie.

Sunny coast. @Dan

I resent being connected with QLD as my kneck of the woods. I was but a transient guest in Hervey Bay for a short 5 years. Well a long 5 years, I wont be headed back to that hell hole.

I actually hail from Harbord, near Freshie High. And lived in Narrabeen for a while, then spent most of my adult life around Mosman and Cremorne.

I'm from Frenchs Forest now on the GC via Mary River NT, Brisbane, Annangrove and a few more.
Still a Waler at heart.

It must be the nederlands taking affect

 

[globaleagle]

hahaha, no doubt. I hope your vomitorium got cleaned up without much yelling.

Morning walkies!

If you take the pics top to bottom as kind of a scroll 'left to right', that gives you the idea of the skyline.

You can see all the empty snow runs!

 

[RiverEagle]

Stunning @globaleagle

I guess mother nature compensates us mere mortals; and if a bear or moose finishes you off it's at least picturesque around you!

(Bit worried about @Alan too...He hasn't logged in for almost a week mate?)
