So what's been happening



I thought it was about time to up date the blog before we arrived for Christmas/ New Year.
Not alot has happened actually since the last post and photos. Out time here at Caboolture South has almost finished, It has been extremely hot and we found out that the main air con in this house does not work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! bummer thank goodness for the pool and the small air con in the back room and old pedestal fans, without these it would have been awful. The home-owners here are due home on the 11th and Brian will take their car down to Brisbane Airport about 45mins drive collect them and bring them home. I will stay behind and do the last minute cleaning and packing. Once they are home we will stay and have a cuppa with them hand back the keys and then we will head to Brisbane where we will stay the night in a motel before dropping the car off on the morning of the 12th at the off site airport parking and the company will take us and our luggage to the airport for our flight. Usually we leave the car at the airport however this time being away a bit longer it was going to cost too much. Brian is coming back a week earlier and he will ring the car parking company on his arrival and they will collect him from the airport he will collect the car and drive back to our friends the Waldron’s where we will be staying until they arrive back from NZ. I come back a week later and will get a shuttle bus back up to the Sunshine Coast to save Brian having to drive the hour south to collect me then have to drive back up again - saves all the faffing around. Brian will then collect me from the drop off point on the Sunshine Coast which will be the Ettamogah Pub about 4min drive from the Waldron’s house. We had a cancellation of a house sit that we were to do in February as the lady lost her job and they are unable to go away to Tasmania as planned. They felt really bad having to ring and tell us however we have actually gained another lovely home for 3mths at Kallangur, so we have gained a month on the one that was cancelled, one of my craft friends Keryn knew of a lady whom I have met who wants a house sitter for when they go away at the beginning of February, I rang and spoke to her about it and we are going down to see them next week on the 10th, so it looks like is going to be better, Kallangur is only about 20mins south of where we currently are so it will work out well when we head south in May next year, that will be a shock to the system heading south in the winter????
