Good morning daily

[T1 Terry]

I bet you had a terrific day Terry.
My parents owned one of those Singer cars from about 1950 to 1957. Mum, Dad & 4 kids!
I bet it wasn't electric back then though!!
Did you grab a photo of it at all?

Of course I didn't take any photos, cause I was so busy looking it didn't entry my mind to take even a single photo

But this is an ABC news article on it https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-04-29/ ... /102277920

Some of those early cars were so small and so little room inside, I don't know how people travelled in them ..... but then others, like the "Chocolate Car" owned by the big chocolate family .... that for the life of me I can't remember, was just such a big luxury vehicle it screamed wealth, and the whole family dressed up in the roaring 20's style outfits ..... it was just such a sell of an amazing restoration .... or maybe just preservation of something grand from the past.

Good morning.
What do they say...no picture it didn't happen
Just a general clean up till 11.30am...then I was picked up by a neighbour...we went to look at some motorbikes he was interested in a certain Honda.. the place we went to had over 50 bike's in all sorts of condition... mostly bad condition he wanted too much..so there wasn't a sale...I got home just before the end of the bike race . So I didn't see much of the race..
Carol will be off to bingo today...so I'll get up to mischief.
Temperature got to 35 yesterday... probably be up there again today.
Keep safe.
Bernie.

Good morning everyone. No rain here and none on the horizon says Mr BoM. Might get to 28⁰ or so.
Spent most of yesty cooking lunch and washing the house windows. That's always fun, not.
The GP should be ringing for a telehealth follow up for the last lot of blood tests this morning. Have nothing else planned yet.
Enjoy your day everybody, safe travels.

The container people come today to look at the spot I prepared for the first container to be positioned and tell me if I need to move more things to get it in place. Unfortunately, the side loader unloads to the right, and I need it to the left of where the trailer will be positioned ..... it might be an interesting day ..... or not

The broken mirror gods continue their punishment, wind removed the awning from the sail track last night, so yet another repeat job .... haven't carried out a yard survey to see what other destruction occurred ......

Terry, do you not bring the awning in when the wind picks up pace a bit? Or do you have deflappers that aren't real flash?
Will you put the Winny under the dome as semi permanent when it's ready or leave it out in the yard mostly.
I wish I could get some cover over ours but it's all to high for council regulations. It's not any fun working on the roof without cover, especially in summer or rainy season.

Maybe one of these that I used to do the trailer mods https://www.bunnings.com.au/shelter-log ... s_p0036257

or one of these from Temu

but extend the legs and use those screw anchors https://www.temu.com/search_result.html ... 4uiswi53iv if setting it up on the lawn

Because it is a temporary shelter, they often turn a blind eye ..... and even if they come at you to remove it within X days, so what, pack it up and put it in the shed, wait a mth and go again

Up at 0800 showered dressed and down the blood taking place 8 tubes taken, no wonder I am tired .Been out in the garden spreading more mulch and replanting some mondo grass (in the rain) and the ground was still dry so this nice rain should help. Terry why didn't you put that tarp over the Winnie? that's why we gave it to you. it had those eyelets for easy tie down, geeze do I have to explain everything to you? Rain still just drizzling down now cuppa time before I go to sleep.

Don't understand how that was going to stop the awning peeling itself out of the sail track. The arms and roller ends were anchored down, I hadn't put the anti flapper ends on or the bracing bars to stop the "woop" from occurring, but that wasn't how it came out of the track ..... the through rope untwisted at one end and that allowed the end to come free. by that stage the wind was too strong to untie the arms to roll it up, and the next gush simply peeled it out of the sail track completely, leaving the end where the problem started still anchored in under the tension arm mounting bracket.

I'll wait until the dome is up before I replace the sail track with something stronger, too many other jobs to do before the drive to Balranald for this yrs rego inspection ......
