Friday 20th August, 2021 Zero day
Today was a day I needed to have a phone consult with my doctor in Perth. Then go buy the pants I decided on over port, nuts, patty cakes and chocolates. I also managed to have toast vegemite and avocado about 11pm. I know have to clean up the tomato I tried to cut with a blunt knife.
I had arranged to have coffee with John after I had shopped to discuss book 6. It was then another shop for stuff I couldn't get yesterday. Also the pants now rejected needed to be posted back home. I decided then to stay an extra night so I had a day to actually relax.
Dinner was arranged with Chris driving a couple of hours up to Toowoomba. He is a very generous man with his time and has looked after me well with food. Tonight it was a steak dinner at some place out Drayton. I have recollections of not shutting up. Then Chris would have to drive the 2 hours back home. He was walking the next day with a group of walkers that may not have extensive experience but the desire. I was hoping the National Trail people would be interested in similar types of activities. The Bibbulmun, in Perth, and the Heysen in SA have similar mentors who guide groups and in the case of the Heysen complete the 1200 kilometre trail over time, sometime years. Bit harder for a large trail like this but given some thought I'm sure people could get together for walks and car sharing and shuffling. There are some great sections of trail in Qld that could be done over weekends.
Anyway, thank you Chris for the hat, the steak sandwich and Pepsi and the steak dinner and beers. Next one is my shout. Also I should thank you for 500 people that now know about me. No pressure.
