Hi all
Just joined today I am an oldie long time retired travelled this great country numerous times with my wife and caravan. Including the Simpson desert gunbarrel highway and parts of the canning. Those more difficult drives are now past and i stick to the bitumen. Was a building superviser on large projects. Now help my elderly neighbours out with handyman type jobs been in Canberra for about 40 years it was great but this Labor government has wrecked it but to old to move.

I am kept fairly busy with my gardening and helping out the neighbours. i have also just came back from the terara country music festival which was 8 days of great country music . no police with there dogs on the entry gate and no drug testing or drugs no booze or fights may be that's because most attending were of the older generation. off in the van in a couple of weeks to a family reunion so dont have much time for other hobbies . so all you readers take care and keep active if you are able.
