Nightly Goodnight Everyone

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

The MiL received a notification from the Service NSW or whatever its currently called, to say that they need a new photo of her, as she now has glasses specified on her licence. When they eventually got to Corowa for the photo shoot, she wasn't allowed to wear the glasses anyway. Do you reckon that received an acceptable performance . Not.
Cheers

Sometimes, it's best not to be a smart arse with the bloke across the counter.

He might be a little grumpy and decide you need a medical. Headaches, have to rest after 10 minutes, cataract surgery, expired HR licence, oldish bloke.

Keep your head down, no jokes or trying to be smart/funny.

Thats kinda funny. I was told exactly the same thing on our recent overseas travel. Kept my head down, didn't say anything clever and then upset some security dude at Dubai Airport. And he wasn't even in the picture. Lesson learned, do not take pics near the security area at the airport.
There used to be a customer relations consultant (loose term for the nice man behind counter) at Kyneton Vic roads. He was a total a..holeand would go out of his way to make sure you didn't have a nice day. The counter was 1.6 metres wide. Just enough so you couldn't reach over and drag him over to your side. As I said, not a nice person.

Why Balranald for a license? Don't you reckon you would pass it in SA? ;) My mums passport pic looked like a mafia boss as her glasses turned black in the bright room :lol: :lol: Jd where are you heading to and how is your bus going since your work on her? Deborah I planted my boronia plant today and re sited a rose bush and potted up heaps of the mondo grass. Had a small sprinkle of rain this arvo. Watching the 9/11 WTC days event, still makes me feel so sick to watch and to think of all the poor people in those buildings. BOB's are back after their day off so I will watch them rather than relive that terrible day. How on earth have the relatives coped/coping? Makes me wonder what will be next. G has gone to bed he hates these shows like The Holocaust, Wayco, Jamestown, etc But our grandkids have to know about these man made travesties and make sure they never happen again Hope all the sickies are on the mend and Ray and Joy are starting their great trip . Caught naughty Norman doing the galah rumba again, :roll: Oh lit the fire tonight it got a bit chilly earlier on. Time to say Goodnight everyone x :D Goodnight Peter aka 2ft6 x :D

Where is everyone? T1 must be on a road somewhere,(mobile or not) :lol: I woke at 5am with such a dry crackly throat then by noon the cough was really crackly so G off to the chemist for cough mix. I just put Vicks all over my back, chest and neck so will see how we get on. As expected I did nothing today. G has appointment with the back man to see what he has in store after seeing all the scans and G's report that the jabs didn't help much. Watching the BOB's the race was ended earlier than it should of due to rejects and their dangerous displays of protesting to the war of Gaza, Israel, etc. They put other spectators and the bike riders in danger. Had my gripe for today so off to a nice hot shower and then to bed. Hope everyone is safe and well. Goodnight everyone x :D Goodnight Darryl x :D :D

Do you really think I'm as silly as I look? That's just the way Margaret dresses me ;) :lol:

Because I had to do the eyesight test again with the glasses on, just because it says "S" on my licence, I asked if I should have my glasses on or off ..... the quick reply was " Do you want to have to wear glass even after you get it cleared by your eye specialist" A win to the lady behind the counter :lol:
They were the friendliest counter people I have ever experienced at a Service NSW office, and the ones at the Lithgow office had the award prior, Service SA could learn a lot from these people when it comes to attitude ...... particularly the Murray Bridge office .... I think they go out of their way to be difficult .....

Dot, you sound a bit rough mate. Do you have a sexy voice now too? Hope the garden is flourishing with the rain that you are meant to be getting. xxxx

Terry, why travel to renew your license? Isn't SA able to give you one?

I have just paid up to do our usual show in late March in Armidale. Seems odd starting on next year already, but then, I have been doing some Christmas shopping for a few weeks so next March will be here before we blink.

Today it was raining heavily as reported and then this pm the storms dropped from above. Great lightning show and huge rain, but happily no hail.
We packed the van and the truck around the rainfalls. It's all done and ready for departure tomorrow morning. I am starting to get really keen to get out. It has been three whole months since we took the van out and this is a selling weekend, so soon I can get back to making new stuff (assuming that some stuff does actually sell)

Stay warm ands safe you lot,
night all xxx
Deborah


Just get out there and enjoy life

Sometimes, it's best not to ask a question.

Sometimes, it's even better not to answer the question.
