the nothing ,anything ,everything thread

This is a thread with no particular

Topic so no one can be off topic 🙂

 

So if anyone out there has something 

To say about anything you like now

Is your chance

 

Keep it clean 

 

And be nice 

 

See how long that lasts

 

Can we keep politics and religion out 

Of the conversation

Hello, Hello, Hello.

 

It is a bit of a funny old day here we have had one thunderstorm and more on the way by the looks,

 

 not happy as the chook went broody nearly 2 weeks ago ,  so i guess we can forget about any chickens now after the thunder we have had  but that is nature for you.

 

 it is also steamy here too .

Talk about kites. From the late 1950s

 

A beautiful sunny breezy day.  Pa says "good day to fly a kite". So a pairing up to manufacture said aeronautical machines.  4 teams in all. An adult with a child. 

 

We used to take forever to pick the right sticks, some off the ground from under the old gum.  One team "found" some old window beading.

 

Borrow some string from Nana's trussing supply, or pa's "straight line".  Find brown paper bags, to glue together with the flour and water paste - don't forget the salt, it helps stop mould.  Add the tail that had flags of scrap from mum's dressmaking efforts.  

 

I reflect that the adults had more fun than their team mate.

 

Wait for it all to dry in the sun, while we had a roast lunch.  Which was inevitably followed by some really slow and noisy content-from-eating naps.  

 

Okay kids, let's go.  

 

Run>>>>>>> let the string out as you run>>>>>>>I said, run>>>>>>>>>faster>>>>>>>>>>>faster.  

 

The "young" uncle got his team's effort aloft.   Until.........on 5 acres of paddocks there is one set of power lines...........

 

The wind disappeared, from both our lungs and the atmosphere.

 

And it was time for an early bath and teatime.

 

An excellent night of sleep as I recall.

Lol sounds like us

So many efforts at kite flying ending

In a tree. Some never even got off the

Ground.

But it was fun trying

One of our earliest prototypes

Was ice block sticks and lined paper

And to my surprise it actually flew

I went to Singapore years ago and 

There were kites everywhere

Some like stealth bombers

And giant dragons, birds.it was a regular

Activity for families in the park, on the

Beach
