Hi Folks,
Another routine day in the resort. Gutter cleaning, lawn mowing and being the pool man.
We decided to press our UHF handheld radios into service since I can be hard (or to check up on to make sure I am not goofing off) to find at times as the resort is a fairly large area. Therein lies the latest headache. it looks like both batteries that came with my 5 Watt Uniden unit are stuffed. They don't seem to hold charge. I can buy new ones from Uniden for the princely sum of $130 each! So I am not happy Jan. Mind you I shouldn't be the surprised as the cells and batteries are made in China that bastion of quality manufacturing.
Anyway onto more pleasant things. We went out to a concert entitled "WimminSing" at the Koonya Hall tonight with Ilan and Lynne. The $20 entry fee included a glass of wine. Four local women each sang three pieces and a couple of combined pieces. For some unfathomable reason I did not take my HD video camera so I have posted some very vague video shot on phone cam. Susan and I also drank a bottle of red purchased at the bar plus a cheese platter. We sat at a table of people we don't know so we got to meet some more locals and talk about raising chickens which is a bit of a worry! I might be going yokel. Anyway all jokes aside it was a good evening.
cheers Simon
