G'Day all and welcome new folk!

Hey Doug!!
Haven't been hiding per say.. obviously couldn't get on line for a week. Got sick of optus so I changed to Telstra but had to wait a week for them to connect me up.
Work and been trying to rest and keep warm as much as possible, (working in the cold air at night is not nice my chest will tell you) and then also there has been the odd party on the last few weekends....you just gotta do what you have to you know, You cannot ignore your responsibilities when it comes to the weekend!!
Whats been happening in Doug territory?

Not bad Doug.. Not bad at all!

The paj was off the road for the last three weeks, only just got her back. I don't know all the ins and outs of it but something about the harmonic balancer, pulley etc had to be replaced. That was a long 3 weeks of not having her, seeing her sit in the driveway and not being able to drive her.. very sad.. But all is good and that had better be the end of it!!!!!

are you travelling around while doing the pilot stuff are you? or would this be a permanant move and set up for you?

I'm permanent here in Perth at the Moment , but I can hook on the Van anytime I like and go where I like , preferably North where its warmer, and Come maybe July I will close my Phone and ADSL down and move to Geraldton for a few months, The Caravan Rates are very good there

and then next year when I go 65 I'm off full time roaming around where ever,
Good to see the 4x4 is ok again,

Couldn't think of anything better than retiring and being able to go when and where ever you want! of course I am still 30 years off that yet unfortunately!!!!

It'll be upon you before you know it , time starts to fly the older you get so enjoy it , you get one,

Doug
