Weekend reading


Imagine my surprise and delight when this little beauty glided down our driveway a couple of days ago. It's our "new" courier vehicle. It's a customised US delivery van, the same van that used to deliver parcels and mail between Gympie and the Sunshine Coast (where I live) in the 1940s. The man driving has restored it to its original condition. You can't see them but inside those blackened windows, the van is packed with parcels. It was such a pleasure to see it and talk to the owner/driver who is obviously very proud of it.


I've been spending each afternoon in the garden and hope to get some photos for you soon. We're still going well here in isolation, just going out for food shopping, and staying in touch with family and friends on the phone and facetime.  I hope you're doing well too. The COVID restrictions here are slowly being relaxed and from Sunday on we can have up to five people visit.  It's Mother's Day here on Sunday so this is just in time for family reunions after being in lockdown since early March.

Happy Mother's Day to all the mums out there. I hope you have a joyful day on Sunday.  ðŸ¥°
