Day 145 Gympie Tuesday 30th October 2012

Evening folks,
and a weary one at that. We arrived at the yoga class at 630 this morning. The 1.5 hours of the class passed very quickly. It was quite enjoyable as long as you didn't try and emulate the flexibility of the instructor. Our next host was there as she is also an instructor. I am sure to be sore in the morning.

On our return and after breakfast we drove to the Dickabram bridge over the Mary River about 50 km north west of here at Miva. We had been told about this by Des and Irene at Woodford. This included the story of the workman who went missing along with his barrow presumed entombed in the concrete of the towers. While we were there we spoke to a council patrol officer who gave us some ideas of places to visit around Gympie.

Returning to the retail area we lunched, after which Susan purchased cross stitch threads at Lincraft while I mooched around Harvey Normans.

On our return home Susan sewed cushions for the outdoor chairs while I used the car ramps to change the engine oil and filter on the Pajero.

Tea tonight was takeaway pizzas so i am feeling rather full especially with a couple of beers thrown in.

With a bit of luck we will get a sleep in tomorrow.

night folks

cheers Simon
