Didn't see a thing, conned again huh?. What's everyone been up to lately?? G has changed a cupboard under the sink into 2 pull out draws for smaller things like tins and such.. On the trip away we noticed a few things we need to change and or add so in the process of getting those things done.. Next is to put a light in the wardrobe and to change the bed lights.. never ending this bus conversion thingy.. Going to start sleeping out in the bus to get my pussy used to being in the bus ready for the next nick off...

Dot It's a real credit to both of you to see what you have done to that bus!!
Having said that I think it's important to eventually recognise that you will always see something that needs changing to improve it. Sooner or later you'll have to say "let's just live with it" and adjust yourselves rather than the bus as to how you can use it.
I have a widow friend who's husband spent 5 years getting ready for the trip of their life only to see him die of a heart attack weeks before they were due to head off. His wife had a big garage sale & almost gave away everything involved.
Moral of the story? Don't wait too long!!!

...I have a widow friend who's husband spent 5 years getting ready for the trip of their life ...

In my travels, conversations with new roadies invariably contains a frequently heard statement, "I wished we'd done it sooner".

Just little things need tweaking to make things a wee bit easier for the old bones & eyes, nothing drastic for sure. If you know of someone that wants to rent a house for a while lets know we need something to help pay for the diesel till the old girls house sells. Right now G is outside trying to coax a baby bluey to come out of the wet hole near the shed so the dog doesn't get it , although she has no teeth she would do it a nasty turn if she got it.. Bruce aka BBA of the Macca fame, has done the "caravan thing" washed the van Caught 3 mice after that bit of rain we had. Nearly time to get the mower out again, should have got that fake grass.

Shall get BBA behind the mower on the weekend!
Off to see DOt's Dr to-morrow- taking my rotten hip with me!

Well, a Girl Potato and Boy Potato had eyes for each other, and finally they got married, and had a little sweet potato, which they called 'Yam'.
Of course, they wanted the best for Yam.
When it was time, they told her about the facts of life. They warned her about going out and getting half-baked, so she wouldn't get accidentally mashed, and get a bad name for herself like 'Hot Potato'.
Yam said not to worry, no Spud would get her into the sack and make a rotten potato out of her!
But on the other hand she wouldn't stay home and become a Couch Potato either.
She would eat properly so as not to be skinny like her Shoestring Cousins.
When she went off to Europe, Mr. And Mrs. Potato told Yam to watch out for those hard-boiled guys from Ireland and the greasy guys from France called the French Fries, and when she went out West, she must watch out for the Indians so she wouldn't get scalloped.
They sent Yam to Idaho P.U. (that's Potato University ). So that when she graduated she'd really be "in the Chips".
But in spite of all they did for her, one-day Yam came home and announced she was going to marry Richie Benaud.

"Richie Benaud!!!!", they cried.

They were very upset and told Yam "You can't possibly marry Richie Benaud because he's just ........

Are you ready for this? Are you sure?

I was going to say that jokes belong in the joke section, til I read the last line but there is a section for really bad jokes

We found Jake enjoyed travelling most in the dogs foam pull appart kennel (cheap shop purchase) so he felt secure with walls around him. We took him over for the sleep out Wed night to see if he was still settled as far as just jumping n the Mazda and heading off. he looked around, virtually rolled his eyes in a "here we go again" look, then climbed into the kennel on the bed. Within 20 mins of arriving, he was back out of the kennel and curled up in hs chosen spot on the bed. The Mazda has just become the new secure territory he over sees as supreme overlord
