Back for the Docs

Been away again, this time to the Flinders ranges and a town named Quorn home of the Pichi Richi
railway preservation society, also a lot of movies were made there in the 1950s 60s .
Met up with a few friends in the local pub that I hadn't seen since 1975, very near having a beer to many with them as well , only came home today to see the doc about a cyst on my eye lid , made the appointment earlier , he will remove it on the 16th June as he's taking a holiday.
Also seeing my own doc tomorrow about my blood pressure and am waiting now to see a vascular surgeon about the blocked veins on both sides of my neck hopefully next month, no more dizzy spells and am walking ok without my walker in most places.
Late autumn rains happening all over which will make the Cockies (slang for farmers) happy for those who have already seeded, the tractors were working hard along the roads on our way home, getting cold now and the days have shortens daylight at 7am- dark at 6pm so home for winter-and get all this medical business out the way and get ready for spring.

Are your leaves changing color getting ready for winter? As you know, I enjoy thinking about the time and seasonal differences between your home and mine.

Most leaves have gone with only the ornamental cherry trees which i hate cleaning up yet to fall, they are next door front,. and blow into my driveway

I had to go to the heart doctor yesterday--yes in spite of some rumors I have a heart--waited 2 hours and 45 minutes for him to walk in listen to my heart and tell me I was fine!!! I could have told him that!

You can say that again Mate i went to school with hasn't done a thging since he retired ten years back , he has more complaints than you can think of , chemist bills put a big dent in his pension

Depressing to hear about winter.... It's supposed to be late spring here but some plants got whacked last night by 24F--some spring! Good luck with the medical crap. I'm beginning to wonder about this old age business, although at this point, I still think it beats the alternative!
comment by jjoohhnn on May 15, 2013 6:31 AM ()
there's no alternative for sure , but if you keep active she's great , lots of minor things whic h are expected like running aren't to good.
YOU have to use your head a bit , for instance last trip out the best spot to fish was a steep bank down to creek , so i sat down with a tommyhawke and chopped steps in, took awhile but worked , made it easier for sure
reply by kevinshere on May 16, 2013 12:04 AM ()
That is right. Get the medical stuff out of the way so you can travel
in your summer.

don't want to fall ill miles for home if it can be avoided
reply by kevinshere on May 16, 2013 12:06 AM ()
Love it! The engine...
comment by jondude on May 15, 2013 6:01 AM ()
it got its nickname by the fact it only had a small boiler , so one more was added each side, about ten gallons each with a tap
