PAD June is 'Grateful Month' 1.6.20222 - Here is the reason we were without power on Monday evening. (We are Grateful that it didn't fall on us!)


 I caught this on The Project last night, this very beautiful and very large tree has fallen over the Power Lines!  we are to the north of this photo, our garage is at the end of the road you can see in this photo, although it no longer sells petrol 😕

Wonderful Christmas lunch at our new local Cafe called Campatampa with my tennis friends.

 First up it was Pressie Swap.
Look what I won!!  Cute and Yum!

Absolutely delicious Prawn Spaghetti, too much for me so I asked for a Doggy Bag... the waitress had no idea what I meant, when we explained she laughed and laughed but I was given a beautiful doggy bag which was quickly gobbled up by David for his lunch when I got home.

 Had to take this photo for my Online 'Cow' Quilty Friends... took us a while to work it out, poor cow having to lie there cross legged all day 🐮🐮🐮

I couldn't stop looking all around the place, looks like a Junk shop turned Cafe, so many wonderful things and sort of like our own home 😊😊😊




 Just five of us today Mavis, Lorraine and Robyn then below Val and myself.




Oooohhh laaaaa la, what's this we have been presented with.
 Oh... the Bill!

 Incredible catching up with all sorts of families we hadn't seen in a while, parents from the local schools and Guides, Scouts and meeting lots of people we'd never met before... a lovely day.

We received a letter telling us that an American Film Crew would be filming at our local Garage today and there may be delays... David went up the corner and took some photos for me.

It's an American Drama Series of the Thriller genre titled 'Reckoning' staring Aden Young and Sam Trammell  Check it out HERE  doesn't look like it's my sort of entertainment at all!!
 This isn't the first time our lovely little Service Station has been used in film or advertisements.










 That's a left hand drive Ute I believe.

This is the house around the corner used for filming as well.

What does one do on a cool, wet and grey morning just after one has enjoyed 30 minutes of Physio??

 Head up to Twenty 74 for Breakfast that's what!   Delicious Eggs Benedict for me!
David went for the Spanish Omelette...

But look kids... David didn't finish his!

I did though  :-)  and my freshly made Apple Carrot & Ginger Juice.
One of the things I really enjoy about eating up at our local shops is the people you see...  Simon, Cheryl, Rhonda and Helen today it was.
