yep.

Back home after taking Mother for her quarterly checkup. My troublesome knee & back came good with the aid of painkillers & anti-inflammatories, both oral & topical. Slighty sore back, a bit more than is the normal state of affairs.

Oddly, it wasn't until my sciatica & lumbar stenosis were diagnosed two years ago, that I realised I have a small degree of permanent pain in the lumbar region.

The first thing I dump under such circumstances is Safari data, then Safari's reading list.

@kdfrawg In 1973, the owners of a neighbouring farm build a new house, a standard 3-bedroom dwellimg for $6000. It was in the next couple of years that prices skyrocketed.

There's s a mostly-volunteer organisation not far from here that runs narrow-gauge trains on the former rural 2'6" rail lines. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/PuffingBillyRailway
They are the only organisation in the state of Victoria that's permitted to train & instruct steam engine drivers.
Another volunteer organisation runs annual trips on the main rail lines using old mainline locos, some of which were converted from coal to oil in the 1950s. The Puffing Billy Railway is restoring a Garratt loco that has the same tractive effort as one of the older mainline locos.
