Back again, been busy!

Photo of Vicki, Peter and Merle. Well, finally I get to Post something here.

We have had quite a few visitors, all relatives, so it has been hectic but great at the same time.

Next visitor due is my 18 year old Granddaughter tomorrow for the weekend.

She has just started at University a fair distance from here. Will be nice to see her and hear all about it.

She has worked and saved and bought her car and has been driving since November 2005.

Living on a farm she has been driving for years, as do her younger brothers and sisters.

They learned on a quad-bike (4 wheel motorbike). Getting the cows in to milk, about 200.

My son John who lives in Sheppparton has called in after work every day since Peter arrived.

I usually see him about twice a week.

John used to live in QLD years ago and even worked for Peter and Julie at the Service station on Sundays, so they could play golf or whatever. So they get on well.

A couple of jokes.........

Getting old.

An elderly gentleman had serious hearing problems for a number of years, He went to the doctor and the doctor was able to have him fitted for a set of hearing aids that allowed the gentleman to hear 100%.

The elderly gentleman went back a month later and the doctor said, “Your hearing is perfect. Your family must be really pleased that you can hear again”

The gentleman replied, “Oh, I haven’t told my family yet. I just sit around and listen to the conversations. I have changed my will three times!”

God, I have a problem."

"What's the problem, Eve?"

"I know that you created me and provided this beautiful garden and all of these wonderful animals, as well as that hilarious snake, but I'm just not happy."

"And why is that, Eve?"

"God, I am lonely, and I'm sick to death of apples."

"Well, in that case, Eve, I have a solution. I shall create a man for you."

"Man? What is that, God?"

"A flawed creature, with many bad traits. He'll lie, cheat and be vain; all in all, he'll give you a hard time. But he'll be bigger, faster and will like to hunt and kill things. He will look silly when aroused, but since you've been complaining, I'll create him in such a way that he will satisfy your physical needs. He will be witless and will revel in childish things like fighting and kicking a ball about. He won't be too smart, so he will also need your advice to think properly."

"Sounds great," says Eve, with ironically raised eyebrows, " but what's the catch, God?"

"Well - you can have him on one condition."

"And what's that, God?"

"As I said, he'll be proud, arrogant and self-admiring - so you'll have to let him believe that I made him first. And it will have to be our little secret. You know, woman to woman."
