    Hi Pat, sorry for the delay in Posting, Yesterdays Site Hiccup put a hold on things.

    YEP! it is nice not to have any construction going on, it is so very Quiet.

    We still have some bits and pieces to attend to, cabinets and wardrobes to have built, then a Lick of Paint and "Wallah"
    all done. Thank You, for the Comment made.

    Odd really you should mention the Gym thing, my Consultant from the UK and the Doctor here, told me to be very careful of Overdoing things in exercise. Walking, seems to be their advice always but I will consider all things, members here are Suggesting, I think you have hit it on the head with a routine (Schedule) I have no need for any Routine really but I can see where you are coming from.

    Just now, the Hot period we are going through, has sapped just about all the strength I had.

    As to the old farts, getting together more, I am all for that! :dnr: ( That, would be a schedule on it's own)

    Don't know the cost of a round of golf there, But it's when you hire stuff like clubs and so on, it mounts up.

    Then when I eventually retire out there I will bring my clubs and start playing again, a few more years yet.
    I was never any good, but had a handicap of 16.

    Hidden Agenda!!!

    mmm Well, Jim, according to my little research on this, it would seem that your 16 is on par, with a d*mn good amateur or a low end semi pro,:eek: I can see us playing some amusing rounds. you with a 16 and my hooks and slices.

    I wonder how many times we would shout "Play Through Chaps" :eek:

    :rolleyes: Unless hell Freezes over, I can't see us in this Situation though


    Have a good day
