Well guys I am a bit like you, and there is very little that I can't do, and if it seems impossible, I give it plenty of thought and come up with a solution and it gets done.

I think it comes from the early days when precious little possums where a rare species, and one had to do it yourself and not depend on others and technology to come up with an answer.

I am 74 next Month and we, Alice and I work most days, not all day of course but a few hours here and there.

We sit down at evening and relax a bit very stiff and sore sometimes, but the next morning all is well again, and we do it all over again.

If we didn't do what we do, we would surely end up just wasting away in front of a TV or just sitting around being bored silly.

We love what we do and expect to be here doing what we do for a long time to come or till they take us away in a box

By the way to those who may not know, we are caretakers on a 5-acre block overlooking the Hopkins River and live in our supplied fully furnished Cottage on the property.

The owners are away most of the year, so we enjoy this beautiful place and treat it as our own.

Leon
