Another ex-ADN person has accepted a 10C invitation. Just waiting for him to start blurbing.
Learned at the recent body corporate meeting that 25 years ago (the units are 37 years old) a resident's ratbag boyfriend decided to plant cypress trees across the front of the property. He planted eight of them, you can orobably imagine how feral the things are after that amount of time.
I thought I heard truck & chainsaw engines earlier today. I did. When I went out an hour ago there was only one still standing.
We have a very proactive body corporate manager, we decided at the meeting to have the trees removed & it's now been done.
@matigo Load of bloody rubbish you speak. What applies in one part of the world isn't necessarily the same elsewhere.
My youngest brother and hiswife & two kids will also be at the funeral: they're staying with a friend about 90 minutes from their place on Tuesday night then driving the remaining three hours & plan on going straight home from there. Which is easier, Angus is now 17 and can help share the driving load.
@tomas Not so bad, only 5% humidity for the funeral day. A few years ago I managed OK with long sleeves & a hat in 43° with humidity at 8%. That was about 60km from where the funeral's being held.
Weather forecast for funeral location is 34° to 37°C for the 3 days we'll be in the area. Tuesday: 34°, 16% humidity; Wednesday 35°, 5% humidity & Thursday 37°, 16% humidity.
Mum will love it, I will not.
And a third flooding incident in the northwest hills. Weather reports tell us to expect rain until tomorrow evening.
