 Well it's that time again
when we have to fire up the
outboard
head ashore - uncover the
car, and motor off on
the car rally around the
area to the local victuallers of choice.
(the places we like to go
to buy stuff we need to stay alive)
As you can see - Penny always rides along
and enjoys the adventure day out
and then a walk around.
As you also know - I take
along Brian and MG
two other local boaties from
here - to do their shopping
as well - and to get petrol
and other heavier things with the car.
They usually get to the car
first and uncover it - while I'm still tying up
the runabout at the dock -
so that it is safe, and out of the way for the day.
However last week I parked
the car in a slightly different spot than usual
and while it is only a small
car park, and ours is the only car covered
nevertheless - you don't
know Brian & MG as I do
(be thankful)
so I've decided to
send them this new navigational device,
the latest
GPS (Global Positioning System)
to help them
in their search for
the present location of our car.
 By simply holding it up and
moving around
they should be able to
pinpoint the exact position.
  We had a visit the other day
from Laurie who told me
that he is going to sell his
yacht and move to
Thailand permanently to live
with Mai.
 (it will be listed
for $200,000)
He also brought the
surprising news
that Cranky Andy is
intending to stand in the
NSW State elections due
shortly, as a running mate
to his old friend Pauline
Hanson - formerly of 'One Nation'
formerly of the Queensland
Prison system - but presently it seems,
a new resident of our fair
state - and living up in Nelson Bay - for a while.
 
 Well, that has to be enough
news for today - and apart from these things the
bay has been quiet and
peaceful - with calm days and very little wind.
It's Autumn in Oz - and
really the best time of the year I think
to be sitting on a yacht out
here - the days are very
'lingering' and
mellow - allowing you to relax
and think without stress or
concern.
So we'll say bye until next
time
 PS there was this
one minor incident the other day
