Day 82 Nubeena Monday 18th April 2011

Hi Folks,

Another long day at the office. In fact it was just like being at real work. I had a moderate grumpy attack after lunch. The source being frustration with communication with our helpers. However a quick beer and all was good. Something you can't do in the real world.

Anyway I have the portable generator up and running for Henry to collect tomorrow. Pity I won't be here to show him how to start it. I am accompanying the chief to Hobart to pick up wood at 6:30 in the morning so we can be back in time for the tradie to finish the sliding door/window renovation and build a deck in front of it.

Susan had frustrations with communication too and that washed over our mood for the rest of the day. This has moved the goalposts for our thinking re departure date. We also seem to be doing a lot of hours. Too many!

We had a another good communal tea tonight. My contribution was to cook the 4.6kg rump roast and roast the spuds. The bulk of the meal was prepared by Mel assisted by Agnes. We had a horse radish substitute made from natural yoghurt and wasabi. It turned out alright. It was a good finish to an average day.

I had lit the combustion heater in the shed for a movie show in front of the big screen but since dinner didn't finish until 9:40 there were no takers. I did out of principle go and sit there for 20 minutes and view a bit of high quality blu-ray rip!

cheers

Simon
