The Long Drive Wurtulla to North Arm

Mar 26

I left Joe and Marge home to see my Cousin Norm who lives in Wurtulla Beach he was so pleased to see me he is 87 and can't get about much of late.  We talked about my trip around Australia not forgetting the family and a few cousins dotted around the country side. I then went on towards Nambour and decided to stop and cook up my dinner Chicken with three veg. I started up a generator that a Morgan friend gave me to help me on my way I was most appreciated although it is rather on the noisy side, but beggars can’t be choosers.

Geoff & Vicky’s home

I arrived at Geoff and Vicky’s home at North Arm it was good to see them again and I was immediately given the down stairs flat to stay in all mod cons with a good TV. Geoff and Vicky went out dancing in the evening while I sat and watched a film on the TV having a drink or two.

Up late nursing a head ache relaxing in a lovely Queens Land home enjoying the sun and fresh air trying to source out the possibility of solar panels for Plod fixed to the roof then no one would be able to steal them! The cost is not a lot more than a good generator.

Mar 28 to April 1

While I was at Geoff and Vicky’s I had a restful time helping plant a few plants which did not take long. I was fed and watered they took me out at to a very good RSL club in Nambour one evening. Geoff cooked a BBQ on the verandah while Vicky and I were indulging in a few drinks looking out at the mountains.

 Saturday we went out to visit a few car people in looking at few cars just for a change.

Sunday was a Thumpers car club run we all met up at a parking place.

Every one had arrived so off we went taking a pleasant drive to Pomona a little Cafe that had a Juke Box in with Elvis Presley singing with a small dance floor and if so inclined you could dance. No one took up the opportunity.

Back on our way home passing Montville and Nambour I had a much enjoyable time driving Geoff's, MG it was great. We passed the Jaguar club going in the opposite direction and found out Joe was in his Blue Jaguar.

April 2

I left my comfortably and welcoming home at North Arm as I had to drop off two boxes at Brisbane airport excess baggage, items I had collected over the three years of travelling that I really do not need. 
I met up with Lis for a coffee and parked up for the night  at Tanah Merah.
