I don't mind a bit of washing up or drying for that matter and really don't see much need for a dishwasher because the horrible part is the putting the stuff away part.

And after a glass or two you might put away less dishes than you started with who knows.....

I'm poorly sick :-(

Been in contact with many people who have had flu-like symptoms recently and now I am barking like a dog.

Have to go to Perth tomorrow to sort out some superannuation issues. Not looking forward to it if I'm still feeling off colour. We are going on the train and it leaves at 6.00am, arrives Perth 08.30am. the return train doesnt leave until 6.00pm.

A long day!

If you go via car the journey is still two and a half hours, if you are lucky and there are no snarls on thefFreeway.

Then there is the parking which is now about $10.00 an hour in the Ciy Centre

Bland, bland, bland and double bland :-D

Allan caught it drinking out of wet glasses.

Perhaps a few blandishments will be a solution to your problem Allan. Hope being superannuated isn't too painful specially as you have man flu. :-D

Allan, did nobody warn you to keep off the wet grass. :-0 :-D ;-)

I hope you have the kind of surprise OH and I had when we turned 60 and contacted Sydney about our pension. Unbeknown to us (by now on the other side of the world) the company had been involved in two take-overs and, because we'd left our private pension sums with it, we gained two lump sums each. What a beaut!

:-D :-D :-D

AnnCardiff

AnnCardiff Report 14 Sep 2016 12:25

hopefully not

Allan

Allan Report 14 Sep 2016 15:17

not ablandoned, Joylouise, but nearly so!

After a perfect morning journey, this evening's train arrived late. Just as everyone was about to board, the boarding steps were removed and the train (all two carriages of it), reversed out of the station only to reappear half an hour later :-0

Apparently, one of the two carriages had to be replaced :-|

Arrived in Bunbury at just after nine tonight, tired, cold and miserable.

Just a normal day.

Spent part of the day looking around Elizabeth Quays, supposedly an International Tourist spot.

Just a vast costruction site, with very few (3) retail outlets and a kiddies water-playground that was closed after two days because of water contamination, and remains closed :-|

Allan Report 14 Sep 2016 23:02

I must have been, unknowingly, gargling with broken glass :-S

My throat is raw, and my cough is now perfect because I've had so much practice.

I should have been going to an ex-work colleague's funeral later today and even though the service is to be held in the Funeral Home rather than graveside or at the Crem, I've decided not to attend.

The Funeral Director will be disappointed, as I'm sure that if I went and infected many others, his business would have boomed over the next few weeks! ;-)

I shall self-medicate my sore throat by means of honey, lemon juice and hot water mixed in with large whiskies.

At least after seeing the Superannuation people yesterday, I can still afford the whisky :-D :-D
