Some funny comments on some posts about people jumping up post count with random posts. Thought in this one maybe we could go with something like tell us all at least one good thing that happened to you this week.
For me despite the scare of having fire so close to home the wonderful community spirit where people we hardly know showed up to help move the horses off the property and the neighbour who wasn't home when we showed up there with them (they have irrigated paddocks so safer) didn't hesitate to let us put them on the paddock when they got home. Fantastic to see people helping others out. :cheers:

You tell me. I'm going to meet your other half tomorrow.
Is that a good thing?

Spent a brilliant week on a house boat on the Murray River ;D,despite the extreme heat ???. Travelled from the North East corner of NSW to the South Western corner via Newcastle to pick up my parents :cup:, and very glad to see that that area is getting some rain :cup:. Just hope the New England area gets some too its the driest I ever remember seeing it :'(. I have to go back now and take the Cub and camp along the river :laugh:. Added to the bucket list :cheers:

That sure does go on the good things list. Would like to see some rain in our area of Vic too looks like it might miss us again this time. Work is the unfortunate necessity to funding such trips :cheers:

It's ok GG you can take this one out if you like was a bit of fun but did think it is nice for people to share some good things in their life when we hear so many bad things all the time.

Had a call from our daughter who is in Thailand at the moment, first time away without adults and just a girlfriend , the call was very short and full of static but enough to put a smile on our faces as she is only 19 and our only child, it was lovely to hear her voice if only for a few seconds.

It took me 45 minutes this a.m. to release a dragonfly from a disused spider web down on the dam. It's amazing how delicate their wings are. If the spider had been in residence I would not have worried but I knew this web was abandoned. The dragonfly, when released, did three laps around my head & then rejoined his mates around the dam.

After not doing so well in my latter years in high school 16 odd years ago, I have been accepted into University to finally get my degree. im far from an intellectual type person and it wont be easy for me, but I can see a future with the company I now work for that will give me options to work anywhere in the world with them and take my family with me. Uni starts next week for me....only 7 years to go.
Cheers

The drive home tonight after a s#!t week at work. Picked up a Rabbadab of Carlton Draught (it is made from beer after all...) and the thought of heading up to a family owned 40 acre block for the kids to ride their quads for a couple of days with no video games etc. is a good thing!
Bring THAT on I say!

Just went down to our local butcher to get some osso bucco bones as a treat for Zaccy, sorry just sold the last, ok, what about some gravy beef and a bone for the dog,as he was cutting up the meat we were chatting and I told him what had happened to Zaccy, he didn't say much, just kept cutting, got out a big bone and cut that in half, put it all in a big bag and handed it over and I held out a$20.00 to pay
Nah, this ones on me for Zaccy, :cup: :cup: :cup: :cup: :cup: :cup: :cup: :cup:
I had a lump in my throat when I walked out, there are still some lovely people around :cup:

That is such a wonderful story, so glad that Zaccy is still with you and he now has a treat. Little things can make all the difference one of the ladies who helped with the horses had leant me a halter and stood in the sun last week helping try to load them when she didn't have to. I saw she was drinking cans of lemonade so the halter went back with a box of lemonade she said you didn't have to do that but I said it was all fair.

Geezuz mate, just read your thread after feeding my mutt.
Big pat from me mate.
Goodon on the butcher.
-
The butchers name is Tim and he owns "The Coolart Country Smokehouse Butchery" in Somerville, He buys all his meat locally, hangs it in his own cool room for about 10 days, smokes all his own bacon,hams, etc makes his own sausages.
His prices are not cheap , you will get exceptional quality if you buy something from him :cup: :cheers:

You tell me. I'm going to meet your other half tomorrow.
Is that a good thing?
Certainly the good half!
One good thing that happened for me this week was catching up with a couple of Swaggers and their families in a nice part of the great state of Victoria, and having the DMax (somewhat) keep up with a Jeep and a Range Rover! During this trip it was suggested that everyone should own a Jeep at some stage and it got me wondering how long till they bring out a twin cab ute! ;D
Looking forward to the next Swagger catch up now.

lol.....you will start a 'great debate' with comments like that:-)
A few single cab versions already in Aus, but as always, you'll struggle to find aftermarket accessories.
(Coz the current second fastest selling 4wd in Oz is not a Toyota or Nissan and the 3letter 4wd access suppliers reckon they can't make any money out of it..... Maybe that's a good thing. Makes them somewhat a Uneek4x4).
Here's the single cab version from Murchison Products in Brisbane.

Here's a dual cab version in the US.

Now that could be a good thing too:-)

I can't help myself!
I do find it interesting to see something converted into something else like a few twin cab tray cruisers around here.
Sent from somewhere on something with that tap thing
