In Winter of 2023

Luke & Clint have laid a bit more concrete to facilitate the new deck but getting things organised really takes lots of time, and patience, as many tradies from Inverell have made the move over to the coast to get more work because of the severe flood damage ….

The carport is finished, the kitchen is in so it’s time for me to do some painting before the carpet layer arrives. Fiona had her eyes set on a rear patio for some external relaxation, no if’s and but’s because it’s all organised and just like magic the carpet layer has been, a new floor in the kitchen so now for discussion about the format for the rear patio ……. watch this space for updates ……..

We have partially built a carport up the back yard for both vehicles and the caravan to protect from the weather, more mods to come there. Now it’s time to start on the kitchen setup with out local handyman as builders and electricians are impossible to get now as there is plenty of work available in the flood zones.

Finally we get the keys and Fi is through the roof with joy - the back yard is huge so I think I will set up a three hole chip & putt in the back yard of black & very rocky soil, after of course, I get Fi’s craft areas organised.

Time to rent so we can get normality back to our days while we look for a new home, we find one right beside the McIntyre River (heavy rain, high river levels & major road in to town), not enough to put Fi off. After six weeks Fi took house hunting under her control and within a day she found it! Annabelle’s of Inverell!

Days Pass Slowly April 2021

EMS electronics laid us up for four days at Uralla (fixed) and the problem was back again before Glen Innes; so another unscheduled stop. Nice local CP, but local mechanics advise major fix required; bullshit! Off to Inverell to get fixed and we buy new tug (auto 4WD), great trade-in because of global shortage and Fiona decided we could live here. Another ten day stay (had nothing else to do) to check Inverell out; the seed had been sown to seriously look at where we want to be.

Day One in April 2021

No idea where we are, sold our home and travelling westerly at the moment to decide where to go, so we head to north Queensland. Tug and van are fine, Fi is fine and I am doing what I’m told as we head north towards Bundaberg. Researching all options as we travel keeps us busy and takes our mind off leaving BX.
