Seeing my nephew and niece enjoying being kids again. They live in the states where things are a bit more free now. Getting lots of photos from them on group camps and stuff really makes my day.

Couldn't decide which car to cruise up the coast so I've taken them both out

Went to the beach this afternoon to soak up some rays. Nice as no crowds and little trouble finding parking.

The Vet who gave up her Friday evening early last year to save my little buddy came through the shop today.
 Having the chance to thank her, after the dust had settled, made me happy today.  Earlier, doing a delivery, I was greeted by a gorgeous golden Cocker Spaniel, leaping up pats as if she had been waiting for me to arrive.

Waking up at 4am thinking it was cold and another overcast day ahead, far from it, not only has it been sunny and probably 20 degrees, but my neighbour and friend Brooke turned up, her cat brought home another rat during the night, my cat shows then eats, her cat shows then let's go, lol, in her bedroom during night.
Asked if I could come and get it out, this is the 42 yr old size 6 girl who bathed me when I got out of hospital! She had black short short cut-offs and white singlet, minus bra, I said you dident have to wear that just to get me to remove ya rat, and she said I just threw em on, and added I'm nude sunbathing in the back yard!.... Dident find rat, looked for a good hour, she just kept sunbathing! She's a pretty laid back lass, and knows I'm impotent, but I did mention that my eyes still worked, said I needed help washing my back again, she said I bought you a backbrush, its in the bathroom!..  Now that made me happy today! Cheers Bug-eyed Billy!

A good friend had been stitched up by a crooked local councillor and his police mates.
The case was down for mention this morning, my friend has spent the last 6 weeks in remand on false charges. Well the police prosecutors turned up in court with no brief, no information, nothing, nada so after the judge ripped them a new one, he told my friend she could go home today! |

Glad your friend is out. Will they no-bill it so there’s no clawing back defence costs to date? A neighbour was stitched up years ago by police on a mission, it completely and permanently ruined his life.

Got a problem in a 4HP18 box, 2-4 band not applying and fluid weeping past the piston cover - either apply piston is stuck or the band failed. Thought I’d check my scrap pile box in case there was anything inside it not rusted to the max. Entire servo piston in perfect condition, still bathed in D-II, so if it’s not a broken band I’m good to go.

Now i dunno if this is anything new, rocket surgury, brain science or anything intelligent. But my local italian joint does pretty epic vegitarian pastas. Issue being, i like meat. Swapping pasta for beef tortellini, that works. Best of both worlds.

Going to see my GP, finally finished his part of my ACROD disability parking permit, yippee...
No more kilometre walks from carpark to hospital, it really made my day, and yes I'm happy! Cheers Billy

Haha I was just about to post this. It's a classic WRX too which makes it even better
 I'm wondering he misread the 8 for 0 and thought he was going 102

few years ago I was caught doing 130 in 100k zone, by the same cop and both within 100m of each time. Due to the sensitive business I used to own and how it helped his family I got let off both times,
But that guy.... take my hat off to him, thats not an easy piece of road. I'd wager it was not a joy ride.

What made me feel good was going to bed at 8pm, runny nose sore throat etc, but woke up feeling 100% better, sore throat gone, cough gone and runny nose dried up!
Not sure how or where this damned thing come from but is there such a thing as 48hr flu? Had flu shot too, but weather here in Perth is wet and windy for months, plus am assuming my immune system is still in full recovery mode after chest surgery, still only 7 weeks from that, the only thing I have done that may of caused it was running my car air-conditioning on cold for first time on Tuesday?. I usually make a vinegar spray on a clear hose and shove it down my air vents with a little soapy water so it sticks to heaterbox? Do that spring and autumn! But I feel good today, better than yesterday!  Cheers Billy. |

Had that same phenomenon during our first long lock down when I didn't drive for over a week. Also had trouble judging speed and braking distance. But now I give the car a run every day, good to get out of the house, away from the same neighborhood, makes me feel good daily.Watch how many people forget how to drive properly when you come out of lock down!

Just waking up early as usual, anywhere between 2 am and 4 am, and taking my left arm from under the doona ( sleep right side only ) and finding my cat nestled against my chest, he was snoring too, or the cat equivalent and that made me feel good today!
Cheers Billy...( ya big softy )
