Good morning daily

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!!!

Good morning.
Nigel was confused...
Welcome back from the dead Peter 😁..
Yesterday I finally made the strengthening plate for the awning arm... all pre drilled and painted ...I still haven't got the correct paint to match the wrap thats up there...
It's all marked out... just in limbo at the moment..
Today will be just cleaning up things.. and some gardening before the temp gets up..
A picture of my work platform..
A flock of black cockies flu over yesterday more than I've ever seen upwards of 50 plus bird's I took a quick picture and can see 27 bird's in my pic the flock was going to fast to get all of them..
Keep safe.
Bernie.

Red tail blacks Bernie?
Once a year they used to visit Kingston SE & strip all the pine cones out of the few pine trees around town.
Then the kids used to race out with bags & collect the cones to sell for firewood.

Temp climbed to 27 at 8am but rain expected by 8:30am.
A little humid!

The app says 38*, feels like 40* ..... maybe where they are, feels a lot hotter than that here. Even the yellow flowered thistles are dying, so, enough outside for today, at least we have shade up on the front half windows now and the rooftop rattler is doing much better ......

Port Macquarie v Lake Macquarie. Bit sad really, because he had taken special care in his aim.

Poor Nigel, ..... as soon as the realised it was the wrong place, he turned it off. Made sense to me.

Shirley,

Nigel is saddened. To make amends, he asked if you have any paintings you'd like to sell

Poor Nigel must have bumped his head or something, he has sent rain to Mannum .... I think it's turning into steam as it hits the ground :roll:

Good morning.
Busy day Carol's car has been washed and All the lawns are mowed.
Bruce they probably would have been red tails.. They seem to be what we normally see...
On the Hino all the maroon colour isn't paint it's a wrap.. hopefully when we go to Maryborough next week I hope I can get a colour close to what's there...
On that photo of my work platform...if you enlarge the image you can see the rear awning arm is attached.. and on the ground is the new roller... it's 18 foot long... how long are the awning rollers on your winny Terry..
Yes Shirley I also had the coca cola yoyo...we had some people come to the school and give us demos of what you could do with the yoyos... probably around fourth or fifth class...I think... Padstow public school in NSW..back in the. Olden days 😁😁.
I have no idea what's going on today yet 😋
Keep safe.
Bernie.
