Mersey Pink Apparition :-D

I think I would rather like to be a cad, it might be fun. I suppose you can't be a one legged cad - can't run fast enough :-D.

Sylvia it is sad to lose a long time neighbour, rather unsettling.

Huia - I am running out of choices as to which foot to put down with a firm hand :-D, so it will have to be the right foot.

Enjoy your holiday Allan :-)

What I am wondering, Tec, is which foot are you going to put down? You will need to think carefully about that. :-D

Hi Sue, and everyone

Tec .............. what a disappointment!

I can't blame you for wanting to get back home.


Allan ..............

I have very fond memories of Esperance .......... we camped near there back in October 1975 :-)



We're not worried about the sale falling through. Our realtor was very honest with us, and I think we all had "feelings" about this couple (actually a threesome :-) ), and were just waiting to see which reason they would choose for backing out :-)

It does go to show though that they had not chosen their realtor very well :-)

He should have known they were not eligible for a mortgage under that scheme!



I heard this morning that my long-time neighbour across the street has died ......... they've lived over there for close to 40 years.



take care everyone

Hello Tec and Hi ya Mersey

Not a competition, Tec, just the choir's visit to one of the most far flung parishes of the Bunbury Diocese.

I'm pleased that you are making good progress: the fact that you are going stir crazy is a positive indication :-D

I'm also pleased that the Duchess appears to being well looked after.

Mersey, if we don't have a good time after the distance we have travelled, then there is no hope for us! :-( :-D :-D :-D

Hello Allan,

This is a surprise, you turning up in Esperance. How far are you from home?

Great shame that the beach is blocked off, but I'm sure there are other things of interest to do.

Hope the choir does well - is it a competition?

I am still in a smaller hospital nearer home, but now getting stir crazy. It is now seriously time to go home.

My OH was brought from the home to see me yesterday. That was wonderful as I hadn't seen her in seven weeks. Physically she looked very well.

Well I hope that you both enjoy your time in Esperance, and that the weather is kind to you.

Boo!

Surprise, surprise! :-D :-D

Hello all,

Well here I am in sunny Esperance: well, it would be sunny except that it is 1.31.am :-0

OH's choir is singing tomorrow and Sunday at the local RC church, and as Monday is a Public Holiday, we have decided to make a short holiday of it.

We arrived after an eight hour journey, absolutely knackered. the reception at the hotel was swift and painless (we had already paid some time before)

The last time I was in Esperance was as part of the Rail and Sail holiday, two years ago, when I had a 'frozen' shoulder and the weather was wet.

This time, after a nice Chinese meal, we adjourned to bed. Unfortunately, this has disrupted our normal sleep pattern! :-S

Also, unfortunately, the entire foreshore is undergoing redevelopment, and is blocked off to the public so that we can't enjoy the marvellous white sands on our doorstep :-(

Oh, and Wi-Fi connection is complimentary :-D

Tec, I hope that you are continuing to make good progress, and that the Duchess is also being well looked after
