plans?

As most of the downstairs floor has received a coat or three of tung oil, & my new car is ready & waiting, I am very eager to drive interstate to meet SELKIE & her builder, before towingcher home.
But I'd rely like to tidy off here, finish oiling the floors & get my bike Hondo through her registration check. She would probably pass already, but some months ago I damaged the left side mirror. It was the Knights last home game of the season, Joe & I were parking up on a heavily cambered road near Beaumont Street & the stand flicked up as I hopped off & she lobbed down on her side. When a Honda 750 decides to surprise you like that, yoicamt argue much. Anyway, I only got to ordering a replacement mirror yesterday, & it may take a week to get here. Mind if there are any delays, I might just go & sort it when I get back. 
Meanwhile I am oiling every morning so if will beostly dry for lunch & dinner. 48hrs more should be enough if it all goes to plan ie: the good drying weather lasts & the pets keep off wet oil, we should be good to go by midweek. We're just cracking open rhe champers on the new season, but already things are cooling down. I hear Adelaide is about the same as here, & the desert is mostly in the mid to low teens for the week ahead. A nice change from 45° C everyday.

Some school days would see me run home from the beach dripping wet, stuff cereal down & jog to school. At lunch break I would grab a bike & get a surf in.  On my twenties i took up sailing. If I wasn't actually sailing I would be working on my boat getting things ready. I spent two enjoyable winters on the tropical north.  In later life, I've mowed lawns for an income & continued to swim & sail when I can.  As old surfers know, there's a toll on your skin. Some surfers I know have died or been treated for skin cancer, so it's a vocational hazard.  Added to this, I have a genetic weakness towards skin cancer. My great grandmother passed in midlife & her daughter, my grandmother, had several skin grafts on her nose to manage skin cancer.  Last month my younger brother Pete had a ...

mass political deception

On the day a gunman nicked ex president Trump's ear the world politcians decried violence as evil, undemocratic & so on, more than 39 people were killed in Palestine. These events highlight mass hypocrisy across the world with regards violence & race.  No one in the media industry will ever mention this hypocrisy.
