2007	Got up early only to wait until after 11AM for Graeme to arrive. Couple hours cutting holes in the bathroom ceiling and the above floor to get the light fixture and exhaust fan outlet done. TP at Colleen's where we played the Young Players version with a not so young Dave.
2011	W - Harvey Norman to buy beds from Yakob - only I didn't know the pin number, so went home to find it and when I couldn't, I dug Gail's out for her to use. When we returned there was a girl outside who had been bound in large cello wrap and eggs had been smashed on her head. She wore a sign that said: "Traitor'. It was her last day at HN. Over to Cane & Shells where we bought an outdoor wicker table/chairs, pandanus screen and small side table for the sunroom from Marjorie. Liquorland where James approved of my selection of fine wines and talked me into a Wild Turkey with honey. Picked up a six pack of RWC Heineken. Bought a Drambuie which came with a hip flask.
2021	T - Day 76 of Delta lockdown (1929 cases). 80 minute walk to Pacific View and a first - an unopened can of Woodstock Bourbon & Cola.
2023	Th - 60 Minute walk to Sandhurst. Who'da believed it, after 8 years of walking and scrapping I found my first fingernail clippers and then 6 blocks later I found a second one! Compiled Top 100 of 1963.
