Hi @Jacques just got back from shopping trip in next town ok 17,000 people, no /bunnings, no Target or Good Guys, but most other things incl pubs clubs all fast food places, supercheap, repco etc, kmart.
its 20 min drive . here is IGA, 2 pubs that are mostly empty a few touristy shops and prob 2 of 6 shops in main st are for sale. lots of money in area , rich farmers dont keep town afloat though. most people that work here prob work for govt/council/stock agents/farm equipment suppliers. think there is a primary school.
Big parts of town all govt housing from 50s and 60s, would have been for govt workers when they employed a lot more people. now it would be a fast track to get into govt housing as way less services here etc. People prefer to be near actual hospitals etc guess
Not up to much today.got a couple outside blinds up other day for when it gets really hot again.
How are things going with you ?..

Hi @Blackbird11
I think this weekend I will be doing the Xmas tree, decorations and putting lights outside and inside up, that's if one of my son's gets all of his things out of the front room and the room he was in, so I can move my youngest son into that room and then the things in the front room can go into the spare room.
Sorry if all that's hard to figure out, I think while I'm writing this , I've confused myself.
Hope you all have a better day night

I’m finishing my grandson’s Christmas present this weekend.
Next project is a guitar wall mount for my granddaughter. She’s left handed plays guitar right handed.

Unreal @Glisten .. If I.m the number 1000 in the que of people that tell you you should do the markets,, Well just slap me..
Ouch..! Quick .. give me one one the other cheek to even it up .. Ouch.. Thats better.
Mate , no joke , you've got styled hands and a keen eye. Well, I'm sure you take special orders..
Know what. I'm left handed. and I play left handed. I sent a pic of my guitars about a month ago.
Do you play an instrument, . . besides the music you make with your chisels n saws. So
were you self taught, or is there a trade in your past. Saw another post from you so back shortly.
