The 12 inch

I had to leave my place in the bush and had to leave a lot behind and dont know how much disappeared etc and I thought my 12 inch may have gone but someone called and picked up for me.
Another project☺
Needs a remirror at least...what to do?
Try and use it for photos or probably best use it visual.
There is some place at Taree for morrors I think...

I had to come down to look after my Dad after I had the back opperation so I had to move out I grabed what I could had a bloke up the front he played up I didnt kill him and stayed away.
Peace is more valuable than possessions☺ anyways that lasy who likes astrology has moved in like she always wanted and she is now friends with my ex and she said it was still there...so☺
They all have avos on the guy that left but he has paled up with the girl next door as they got talking after their avo expired.
A snake killed her dog so she rang up my ex because she felt sad.
Anyways there is someone now in the house and she is much more settled these days.
I try not to get involved with the politics and the current war lord is as scared of me as I am of him so we dont clash.
But I dont need my walking frame now and he does... anyways I heard he was busted so....


Hows that for an update☺
Alex

That happened years ago Leon.
When I go North I dont go there I go to the other place thats where I am putting the observatory...oh someone did take my pine linez observatory...but one door closes another opens.
I am told I am always welcome if I want to stay at the old place but with no gear there and only that lady to talk to I dont see the point.
Its no longer home forget the 15 years building it by hand .... but it is important to keep the house there as it can be refurbished whichvis easier than getting new building permission.

And I have another lady who I have helped in the past who I think will, with her boyfriend help with the construction but I have a design that I alone can build uf I have to.

Oh I just heard she has got a new dog but I hope they dont hurt the snake.. its been his home for a while I expect...he didnt want to kill the dog I bet...imagine that snake probably feels really sorry☺
Can you tell its raining?
I had this pie in the micro wave heat it up get interupted heat it up again...so many interuptions...if I do the same to two others I have perfect pads for the scope.
So I figured to do this smoked samon morney or how you spell it..white sauce cheese flour...and some little crepes ...no flour.
Life can be so tuff.
Baked beans maybe.

Its all quite up there now thats why I can talk about it.

I was rather angry and very upset only months ago but I let the police handle things ... they havent really but things are ok.

I was most displeased with the guy up the front but now feel sorry for him.


I have not been to Drake for maybe five years.

A chap at the pub in Brooklyn bought the Drake pub..an old footy player..Paul Miers.

I think this is the place you're talking about -- Saintech at Tuncurry:

Best,

Thank Les.
I hope you are well.
I have just arrived up North and its (12 inch) only 50 meters away...getting excited☺
Thank goodness the clouds are here as I am dead on my feet...what a drive in a fully packed car...
Hopefully it wont clear tonight as I am too tired to set up but if it clears I have to☺
I bought a drone and just had a go...they are great.
I would not mind seeing how I go as there are races and although not mx it should be the cheapest racing and being old should not hold me back.
Sorry I am tired and rambling...its just so good to be outta the city.
Thanks again.
Alex
