Hi All,
The house at Kistelek has finally finished its renovation and the property placed on the market A contract for its sale has been signed so it looks like our family will be cutting its last property ties with Oakey after forty-five years. It means that all the goods we've had stored in the three sheds there and in two containers all has to be shifted in a hurry. Jess has been busy selling individual items on line for older family members but there's still a lot to shift. Otherwise I think it has been a quiet month but a cold one because of the cold winds. I think the cold is affecting me more than usual as I age. Mind you for over 10 years we spent winter in Europe (10 - 12 weeks) and had two summers and no winter each year.
Nick continues to be very busy at both work and renovating his house and garden. The company he's General Manager for now has properties at Toowoomba, Townsville, Hughenden and a new one under construction at Mooloolaba so he gets to travel a fair bit also. Nick has a new shed planned but wet weather has delayed the start of the concrete floor.
Because of the capabilities of artificial intelligence being able to copy the faces and voices of individuals we won't be able to believe what we're viewing or reading. Someone should be trying to come up with ways to ensure only factual material is being shown and perhaps governments should be legislating for very heavy penalties for those making use of artificial material for illegal purposes.
Until next time,
Cheers,
Merv
