So Where is the Post Office ?


A little boy was waiting for his mother to come out of the grocery Store. As he waited, he was approached by a man who asked, "Son, can You tell me where the Post Office is?"

The little boy replied, "Sure! Just go straight down this street a Coupla blocks and turn to your right."


The man thanked the boy kindly and said, "I'm the new pastor in town. I'd like for you to come to church on Sunday. I'll show you how to get To Heaven."


The little boy replied with a chuckle. "Awww, bullshit... You don't Even know the way to the Post Office."

Six foot Tall Dark and Handsome


After a long day at work, Finally got home and there he was eyeballing me from the rafters, a beautiful Carpet Python has much to the dismay of the three cats taken up residence in our Carport.

Well why not let him stay, as well as our own cats, horses, Jungle Python and Blue tongue Lizard we seem to share with next doors chooks and  the lady down the roads dogs so what's another Python to the menagerie.

Kafritsas says it's high time to dive back into the Surf the Hi Surf that is !

Okay in todays Gold Coast Bulletin I read the following story:
GOLD Coast businessman Greg Kafritsas hopes to buy back the management rights to Hi Surf after the company he sold it to went into receivership.
The Surfers Paradise hotel is one of seven management rights that are subject to a tender campaign at the behest of receivers. Mr Kafritsas's offer, which has been lodged with receivers KordaMentha, needs body corporate approval before the deal is cemented.

Ten companies linked to Prime Apartments Hotels and Resorts (PAHR) moved into receivership earlier this year owing $12.5 million. Tony Freeman and Peter Bellomo are directors of each company.

Mr Kafritsas said that he was owed almost $700,000 by one of the companies. The management rights operator, who runs Outrigger Resort at Burleigh Heads and Club Surfers, said he wanted to buy back the rights to a hotel he loved.

He said he hoped the move would see him recoup the money he lost.

NOW HERE IS THE PROBLEM: Can anyone confirm this: I heard on the Grapevine that Tony Freeman is using his influence on family members who are on the Board of the Body Corporate to block this from happening. If this is true then shame on you Tony Freeman.

The Old Railway Shack Over there !

It's Sunday the sun is out and we are sitting in the back courtyard with fresh brewed coffee and Apple Danish. "I tried to imagine it in my head as she explained it", She lived in the old railway shack just over the back there, she pointed to the fence at the back of the property, there was a young couple that lived in the shack next door and they had a young boy and it always made her worry because he was so young and there were a lot of trains around when she lived there.
The Dad was a hard worker, and the Mum was a nice lady, she was home all day. She didn't know what happened to them, but she hoped they were okay wherever they went.

We will never know because they didn't exist, this was a story from Mum when we visited her yesterday, she has been diagnosed with that ugly, ugly disease Dementia.
