That link won't stay open for me Jon. I can read the first 3 lines then it goes to a pay wall.

Sorry Bernie.

It was a nice story about stunning train trips in opulent luxury with pictures. Dave, you'd love it.

the photos below are for educational purposes only and no commercial return. Mainly because we're all tight-arses and couldn't afford anything like this.... that should sort out the copyright issues.

I arrived at the Hay caravan park w'ed used on the first trip back when we bought the Winnie, some 30 mins after Margaret .... what a lead foot, plus it took forever to get the last 50 ltrs of gas into the LPG tank at Narrandera.
Winnie is going great, it much prefers LPG to petrol as far as performance goes, haven't done the numbers as far as the ecconomy goes

Thanks for the photo suggestions Terry and Native Pepper, I am not that computer smart and really, either of your suggestions were enough for me to scream. I really do not have any understanding of your very helpful suggestions. Silly considering I have used the software on these things since we bought our first machine in 1988, but the actual workings are just a step too far these days. Our daughter will have the job of teaching Mum how to sort this crap out over Christmas. Hopefully then, you will see the amazing changes that the lift has made to our lives and how incredibly neat the whole thing is.

In this heatwave, I decided to start on doing some caravan park bookings for next year shows and start on the jayco events. After negotiating the wait systems on many calls, I made a booking for next June with the jayco mob. The lady offered for me to use up all the credits that have accumulated over last year, from cancellations that had to be made. These were all from the North Coast group and they were all jayco bookings that were very reluctantly cancelled. That was a really good way to end the bookings sessions for the day. I still haven't gotten through to the Vineyard park, they just keep me on hold for 15 minutes and then hang up. It was well within working hours, but they were not working.

Tonight I started on the spreadsheet where I list the events, organisers, accommodation. monies paid etc. It feels more under control, once I get it all printed out and each event in their own section of the physical file. I suspect that puts me in the dinosaur category. All the receipts and bookings are printed out, for future reference. If we don't have any computer available, the important stuff is still easy to access. I will plant another tree one day, to make up for my wastefulness! That file comes everywhere in the van, wherever we travel.

Shirley, it's good that the howler of a wind is still cooling us down. No doubt, it will be causing havoc on the roads and water and on the electricity lines.
George, glad that you found the culprit for the eye problem. I don't think that the first doctor should get anyone's business after that. Feel free to send me a pm with the surgeon's name, so that I don't make the same mistake.

night & morning all xxx

Good morning everyone.
Only 32mm yesterday almost a drought
There is always a silver lining...we went to Childers yesterday for another needling, because another person couldn't get there because of the floods . And yes Shirley that's the way we'll go to maryborough today... just another 50 ks on the trip. And the same back..
Because of the rain nothing else went on.
We will drop a bag of orange's of at daughter's when we get to maryborough. A big bag .
Sky is clear at the moment, but clouds all around in the distance...
Keep safe.
Bernie.

Good morning everyone, its a bright sunny morning here. But the man says its going to change. 100% chance of a storm according to BoM. The humidity just sucks the energy right out of you.
The girls have left Mulwala for the road trip across NSW. They should be back around 8.30 pm tonight. Hopefully, I will have everything clean and tidy by then. Or not.
You will soon master the resizing of pics process Deborah, I used to have to do it back in the work days. Something about 3 dot's on the Apple page comes to mind.
I'm a bit of a dinosaur too, I like to see things printed out rather than just on a screen.
Happy hump day everybody, safe travels all those out and about.
