Today was another day in paradise!!!!

Well you need to be positive in all of the gloom...

The weather was good and the birds were busy chirping away unaware of the virus sweeping the humans. I was thinking that this might be the takeover by the animal population for all the terrible things we have done in all the exterminations of species over the years

I was up at about 7.00am and journeyed down to the coffee shop for a takeaway and to get the papers... all bad news with umpteen pages of the virus.... urrrrghhhh we need some positive news somewhere

I had a bit of Alkira business in the morning including a zoom call with the Risk & Finance group where we are managing our way through the adjustments required to services with about 200 people with intellectual disabilities. The team at Alkira are doing a great job in difficult circumstances... a positive call

After a bite for lunch it was off on the bike for a ride down to Martha Cove. The wind was from the north so a head wind on the way out and a delightful tail wind on the way home.... wow more good news!!!

Arriving back at the Rye house I decided to stay down the coast for the night rather than head home to Melbourne.

We are looking to rent out the house we own at 2 Helena which although being well constructed needs an update to move on from the 1970’s decor!!!

This is my job over the next few months of lockdown!!!

So.... the kitchen needs an update and it was off to Bunnings to see what a Kaboodle kitchen has to offer... seems it has succumbed to Covid and they don’t make visits and I need to do a design myself????

I will need to do a bit of work on this and have a look at other options as well

Traveling home I had a great call with Jodie and Sam ( and the grandchildren) and a call with Robyn ( wife) to catch up on news at home. Good to see how the family is adapting to the new normals of Covid

After a few nights of bbq’s it was time for something different so it was Friday fish and chips!!

On a sad note I heard today that Lex Hibbins died...Lex was one of those larger than life characters of Wesley College fame who was Mr sport and a real hero of many in the College community. Special condolences go to the Hibbins family at this time

Now for the photos...

Now there’s a cucumber!!!!
