That would really be something to look forward to. I will have the lofts all organised and have birds flying by then.

Well it would be a good trip, and something to aim for myself mate..

Hope you manage to do it mate

Well Murray, visa granted. It looks like i will be doing a loft visit, between 10th of March to the 24th of March 2025.

That was quick and great news for you

A flurry of activity is finally happening at the cottage in St Arnaud. Contractors leveling the foundations, builder all set to install the bathroom after that, painter teed up to work around the builder, we met with the interior designer today to clarify colours.....

We went out and pulled the carpet and underlay out of the hall and living room today. That was not a great success. It showed that I'm not going too good at all.
I can't do much at all without running out of air.
I got a phone call from the lung specialist yesterday saying she wants to see me on Monday after the scans I had last week. That's ominous. I have a lung function test and then a consultation.
Typically, the first thing that went through my head was she will tell me my lungs are buggered and the pigeons have to go. Catherine shot that down
We know my lungs are shot but we don't know how bad it is, and the pigeons are not going yet.

Watch this space.

Good to see things moving on, hope you get good news from the consultant and remember take things steady as you need to look after Dev as well next year

People are kind. Our new neighbour, Raymond, who is a big strong bloke, came over and hurled the carpet in then jumped up and down on it.

That is nice always good to have good neighbours

Just saw that Trump is $1.80 favorite to win the US election.
Biden is $3.00.
I said to Catherine, if I can find $1.90 somewhere, it's probably a very good bet.
It's got nothing to do with how horrible Trump is, it's how hopeless Biden is.
Probably need to get on soon before it shortens.....

i hope Mr Trump does get back in

The old bald Cockatoo was wandering around this morning when i went out to feed the pigeons. I took a handful of pigeon mix out of the tin and threw it to him. He never moved, just started picking away at it.
The old fellow has figured out that we won't hurt him.

He will be following you when you move, I think they soon realise when you mean no harm

I had an appointment with the lung doctor lady today. About three quarters of an hour of lung function tests then a nice wait of another 45 minutes while read the latest Spectator magazine which I took with me, then a talk with the doctor.
Good news and bad news.
Good news is there is no sign of pigeon lung, so the birds don''t have to go.
Bad news is the lung disease has got worse. Well I didn't need a specialist to tell me that. I now have severe emphysema. So a non medical way of putting it is, I am pretty buggered. However we had a chat and I told her the last inhaler she gave me was not as effective as the old one in my case. So she put me back on the old one and made an appointment to see her in December.
So she must think I will still be here in 6 months. That's gotta be good news

Good news mate
