The BWB-Club

After I had collected for the leukemia foundation had the money banked. Collected $52.70, which is for about 17 a 18 houses very good. On the Tuesday Alice came back from Sydney. The plane arrived at 4.30pm. Had told her to go by airtrain back to the city and then with the bus to Browns Plains, where I picked her up. Traffic at the Airport Drive is too busy, it is really bumper to bumper, 3 lanes thick. Rest of the week busy with getting ready for my week at the Gold Coast. Had arranged for Jaynne, our dog, a house sitter, who was coming twice a day, to check and feed her. Was very upset when I got a phone call that Jaynne went mad in the house. She had pulled down one curtain



and ripped to pieces.



In the laundry there was the skirting board and some tiles gone.



The damage is not too bad, the curtains were very old and had to be replaced, now I have to do it. Have to get a new skirting board, can get that cut to length and nail it then down. The tiles were coming loose and had to be glued back again. Have to do a bit renovating anyway, a bit more or less makes no difference.

On the Gold Coast we had a very nice unit, we lived downstairs.



Did a lot of beach walking




and before the coast was a platform and was told is was the desalination platform for our drinking water.



Every morning and afternoon you can see the helicopter going to the platform and bring or pick up people. Probably it is cheaper to do it this way instead of people living there.

Every lunch we went to a pub close by. We had a good feed for only $4.95 with any drink and it was daily a different meal. At nighttime we did some games and had a lot of fun and laughter. The fridaymorning came to quick and we had to go again. Hope next year to go again.
Oh, by the way BWB stands for Babes without Boopes.
