Saturday 2nd June 2018

Dad
Monday in Cairns and here are the plans !!
Your Mother has arranged to take some time off during the day
Rather than muck around with two cars, yours can just stay "at home" where it is now
Sharon will pick you up at the airport ... take you home ... then head back to work
She will have a gate remote and a house key
And this allows Mother and Son to "yap yap" on the drive to Kewarra Beach !!
Can you send us your arrival time at the airport ??
Makes it easier for Sharon to arrange staff, etc, etc ... thanks
Will see you sometime !!

Brett
Okay ... no worries
There isn’t any need to come to early as there’s nothing to do at the airport
I arrive at the international airport and you can only wait for me to come out
I’ll text when I’m walking out and look for you
And here are all the flight details


You can wake up Monday morning and Google the flight status and you’ll find out it it's on time or not, etc, etc
See you Monday

Dad
11.30am Saturday ... and Sharon is out shopping at the moment
Buying stuff to make you two or three different things !! ... just to have in the fridge !!
She will be read this when she gets home and be ready to go on Monday !!

Mum
Takes me ten minutes to get to the airport from work
So text me when you are ready and I will leave straight away
See you soon !!
Safe Trip !!

Brett
Okay

Sunday 3rd June 2016

A "fun article" to read !!
 
click HERE to read download this article in "pdf" file format


Brett
Might check it out
I’m sure if Mum reads about the dangers I won’t be able to go back !!

Mum
Already read it and yes you are correct !! ... don't care how old you are !!

Brett
You may have no say, Mother !!

Mum
"God said - children are supposed to do what their parent say !!"

Brett
God ?? ... don’t start with that !!

Mum
Haha !!
Did you see all that gear she was wearing ??
I had a nice afternoon making stuff for Dad and me and also you
I have a container each of curried sausages, Thai curry chicken, and a roast vegetable salad ... all small portions !!
And a couple of slices of banana cake !!

Brett
Thanks, Mumsy
And yes, I’ve seen the cold !! ... yuck !!
And no food for when I get home ... cake and tea is fine
I’ll be getting a pie or two ... maybe even one for everyone ??

Mum
That sounds good !!
And I knew you would want to stop for a pie !!
