Good evening all. I hope everyone has been well and had a really good weekend

Chris I had a lovely relaxing weekend. Even though it was spent getting ready to move on.

Well hoping for a fine day tomorrow. Do not know if I will get online where we will be camped. Fingers crossed.

Camping is so much fun. I wish I could go camping as long as there was fishing involved too. The weather is perfect for it now as you can have a camp fire. I just pray that the rain stays away for you. Have a really great time and I hope to hear all about it when you return. 😉

Good evening everyone!

Hi JVH hope you managed to keep cool today - tho hard to imagine as it was like winter here (rain/hail and freezing) - however the party was a huge success (posted a couple of pics of the d.d. bus on f/b) - lol I have a very reliable car - just an unreliable imagination!

Hi purple I adore pea and ham soup if you get a chance would love the recipe. I also love mushy peas (English style where you soak dried peas overnight in bi-carb soda) - a little added vinegar as they are boiling and I could eat them morning noon and night lol!

Hi chrisblack! Not really into fishing myself but do love it when my brother cooks up a fresh catch on the barbie.

Hi dame glad you are going to have a bit more time for you (semi retirement) - hope mr. beam's trip was extremely uneventful this time!

Pjbear are you home from hospital?

Hi bella hope your weather is not as bad as ours today. Hoping your check up goes very well tomorrow!!

Hey kezza where are ya?

Sweet dreams to all!!

I just like the tranquility of sitting by a river or the ocean. It doesn't really mater if I catch anything or not. I just find it very relaxing. I love camping and being outdoors. I recon that there is nothing better hen sitting around a campfire at night time playing a guitar and singing songs whilst watching all the millions of stars in the fresh air. Unfortunatley with my busy life style; I do not get the time to do it as much as I would like, anymore. Cooking fish on a BBQ is very rewarding as well.

I hope you have a really great day and I will chat again tonight when I get back to work. Take care

Good evening to the thread:) Well the week has gone quickly, Alex is back home and mr beam is on his way back. Back to work tomorrow for me but I am not going to be working too much longer as I have decided to go into semi retirement and hopefully just go back to my business on a small scale:) I hope everyone is well and enjoying this beautiful weather God bless and take care♥

Hi Dame and so glad you had such a marvellous week with Alex..........great having that young company puts a smile on your face all the time..............and good for you about going into semi retirement..........time for you and for you to do what you want to do when you want to do it:).........geez hard typing that when one is half awake:)

Good evening all. I hope everyone has been well and had a really good weekend

Hi Chris and great to see you on the thread:) Yes i totally agree with you getting out in the great outdoors is marvellous very refreshing for the soul........nothing than i used to like more than grabbing the cameras and heading out away from everyone..........is really grounding:)

Kezza havent seen you around girl are you ok?

Morning all. Raining and cool here. R is still in bed, so I have no idea what we are doing. Will have my shower and breakfast and wait.

Nogal my soup is just the ham hock. yellow split peas and heaps of vegies. I simmer it for a few hours and then remove the hock. puree the soup when cool. Cut meat off the hock and put back into the soup. I also add a packet of chicken noodle soup or use some chicken stock powder. Was yummy with nice hot toast last night. Made enough for lunches during the week.

Gee JV not good with the heat.

Hope everyone is well. Have not seen Kezza for a while even on fb. Hope all is well with her.

PJ hope all is well with you as.

Chris you would love what we are doing. I find the bush camping so relaxing. Hopefully it will stop raining and we will get out.

Take care all. BBL if I have net connection.

Hi Purps and yes we seem to spend a lot of our life simply waiting and waiting.......sounds like a really good day to do nothing.......

I havent seen anything of Kezza on facebook either.....sent her a message late last week still no reply.

Hope you get a net connection so that you can keep in touch with the outside world:) Have a great day:)
