NORMANTON 2

Well the nunga wedding went until 0200; well that’s when the music stopped. It wasn’t too bad a band though. Did the washing and had a small walk to the shop for milk for breakfast. Around the hall inside the fence was a mess knee high in cans but out on the street was as clean as a whistle. Wasn’t that long before they cleaned it all up,must have been a good show as there were alu foil trays with leftover roast vegies and beef.

Spent the day doing a spring clean of the van and tidied the car, swapped warm clothed for cold ones etc. Di borrowed a vacuum cleaner from a couple next door so she was in her element. Made up a bracket for one of the cupboards to stop it falling on Di’s head.

This couple have been on the road for 6 years and are only going back home in home in Sept as a daughter is getting married, made it sound like an inconvenience. We had a cuppa with them and it was obvious that she didn’t use the vacuum very often.

Today is probably the first day I have been able to relax and not want o push on. It was quite hot and we had a swim in a very nice pool in the park, it used to be the town pool prior to a new one being built.

I went to the old bridge about 1730 for a fish but nothing happening. Came back for a BBQ tea and then had a haircut.

Booked a spot in Karumba for tomorrow.
