:( Sorry Wayne & Nini had to rush home...
I'm sort of a Prisoner of Zenda at the moment. Need my walking frame for the next 3 months :shock: !!
That makes just a 'quick run downtown' a major production. Even though the walkies machine folds in half.
T1, if you're still coming our way, don't let the rain put you off. We have a slight slope on our block - good drainage - and a concrete slab rated to 10t. (Ask Newcastle George! His big bus fitted onto it.)
PM me for a map. I've marked the wineries... all 26 of them! ;)
Regards & God bless,
Ray

Hi Ray, we are back in Mannum, ended up sticking to the coast all the way home.... well except for the road closed bits where the coast fell down. Had to be back for work and to do the end pat of the house purchase. We moved in yesterday so first night there last night. Felt kinda strange, like we were in someone else's house because we bought it fully furnished, so nothing is familiar.

I kinda know the feeling.
Many long moons ago, when I was single (ancient history!), I could only rent furnished flats. Didn't have the $$$ to buy any furniture.
Regards & God bless,
Ray

The mousey is probably stuck to the sticky trap if it's still around but I thought we'd caught them all.... well the ones that didn't come on holidays with us anyway. Mongrel things chewed the corners off the packets that make the most mess, coffee and sugar was the first attack and it probably couldn't sleep after that so went on a rampage and opened every packet in the cupboard :roll:

Up on the hill on the other side of the river from us.
Can you imaging the sound across the 'valley'?
I tried to catch a video of one burnout but the wind was too bad for the sound.
