@Medusa and @Georgiagranny I like all the seasons but, Spring is my favourite 
Rained today but not too cold. I popped to the Post Office to pick up a parcel and then to the supermarket where I bought some tins of Mr Organic Tomato and Lentil soup. I like making soups but, since the days of Covid, I have got into the habit of stocking up on some tinned stuff.
By the time I got home, did some chores and started thinking about dinner, it was dark outside. We can hear the wind and it's raining again so, I doubt that I will be venturing far tomorrow. Actually, I am thinking of getting the Christmas stuff out, nearly everyone I know put their Christmas stuff up last week!
Hope everyone had a good day

We are away for a week mainly for doing allot of things like updating our wills, which involves 2-3 visits
Our hobby Of ballroom dancing Christmas functions ( already been to 2 functions ) 3 left to go ~
2 this week …one next week ….as well as a family catch up at water mark for lunch on Sunday
Dining — Watermark Glenelg, Glenelg North, SA which is in the seaside part of the city ..at Glenelg
We are off to Queensland mid Dec ,flying up as the roads will be very busy we decided to stay off the mojor highways , it’s a long way 2.200 km each way ….and we normally have a 2 night stopover each way = 4 nights accommodation up, and back and with Christmas approaching prices will be through the roof .
While I’d hate to live in Queensland ,we’d love it for the climate in the winter months ( Queensland is tropical )
however venturing up there in summer is a different story ..it will be hot and humid …..we call it hot here where I live
if it’s over 40c ..like over 105f …. Queensland is considered hot if it’s mid 30’’s C …mid 90’s
Ive got a major birthday
in Mid ….Feb , so we have booked for us to fly up to Queensland again ….as there is live music for dancing up there that we both enjoy 
, as well as our accommodation includes meals …so we’ve got a busy time ahead of us …

My hubs surprised me this morning by buying us a ticket in the showroom to see a live show / popular singing artist in what’s known as Twin Towns
( called that simply because it’s built on 2 ~ different states borders) Queensland and New South Wales
This is part and combination of my birthday trip to QLD in mid Feb for my big number birthday ….i mentioned up here ^^^^^
TT showroom is fairly large ,~ think from attending previous live shows at the same showroom it holds around 1.000 +
they seem to attract some fairly good artists , but the best I’ve ever been ( for our tastes ) was a Roy Orbison tribute ( Mark Shelley )The Roy Orbison Story Starring Mark Shelley - Entertainment Venues
Backed by an orchestra …...think it’s about a 12 peice
and the Buddy Holly story was great as well
