Day 74 Nerang Monday 20th August 2012

Evening folks,
Another short post tonight.
Pleasant surprise this morning. The porridge was already made. Michelle cooks it for the kids so she made extra! Just the right amount for me.
After some pottering and listening to the bobcat guy smooth out the gravel he delivered yesterday the 4 of us toodled down to Michelles's Shop in Southport. We spent some time chatting and perusing before hopping back in the car. I drove around Surfers Paradise for a while before we headed back to Nerang. I am not going to comment on Surfers, it is what it is. Couldn't see my self living there though.

Surfers, where else?

What the?

After lunch Susan and I popped down to the post office and had an expresso before returning to Nerang. Susan snoozed in the camper while I attacked the door hinges on the car with some non sticky lubricant and spent the best part of an hour removing road grime and some Fraser Island scratches from one door on the Pajero. A slow tedious process with a clay bar and polishing paste.

That's it for the day. Tomorrow we head NW of Brisbane to Woodforde for a HelpX. Should not be a dew tonight so all things being equal we might get away early, well before 11 maybe!
