As much as I wanted to leave home when I was a young lad, it was always a nice feeling to go back home. Until they downsized

It will take some time to get used to not be able to go home to the farm. Things change I guess - we just have to adapt! Thanks Dale 😊

Mum will have lots more to organize at the new home. Thanks for taking us along

Thanks Cynthia - she is doing a good job unpacking, but is struggling with lack of storage compared to her farm house!

You brought back memories of driving a VW Kombi in the wind. What a joy that was! I thought I had a lot of pot plants but I think your Mum has the record on that one. I'm glad she can take a good number of them with her.
@TheUltimateRecycler4 ай бұрын
Yep the ol' kombi's would catch the wind I would imagine! I used to drive a beetle when I first got my licence! There's lots of pot plants I haven't really shown yet! 😲🤣

I don't see anyone else claiming it and in any case I think we're going to award you the Ultimate Van Packer title. Thanks for some enjoyable inspiration.

Thanks for the tour of the farm house. You and mum will miss the place. Do you know what Ross is going to do with it?
@TheUltimateRecycler4 ай бұрын
Yep, many great memories for the whole extended family in that house! No, not really - short term it may be some accommodation for farm workers, but eventually I think it will be demolished and a new house built!

That van is amazing, it holds so much. I'm glad it's you doing all that sorting, I would shut the door and watch TV 🤣

Thanks mate. We sailed pretty easily all the way home - the winds weren't too bad but it did rain for the entire trip!

Thanks Chris, more great progress at the farm, talking about the old chest freezer made me smile, we were one of the first families here to have a large chest freezer back in the early seventies, my Dad had worked for the New Zealand shipping company and Captained many a freezer ship of Lamb & Butter to the UK from New Zealand so was a big fan of freezers. The vessels he was on were mixed use so as well as cargo they also took small numbers of paying passengers on the long voyages to NZ, Australia & Tasmania. He still has fond memories of his time in the Antipodes, although one trip was delayed somewhat so he didn't get to meet me till I was nearly six months old !

By gee mate. I hope Mums place in Nagambie has plenty of room. I absolutely love her plants and the garden in general. And the history that goes with the house.
@TheUltimateRecycler4 ай бұрын
She is struggling with the lack of space in her new place Glen! Just not as much storage room as the farm, obviously!

I learn to drive in my father vw camper with popup top. I know what you mean in strong wind while driving in a box. We hate the westerly winds usually when the Brisbane ekka in August. It funny how old people love big freezer full of food. After my mum passed, we found the top layer of my brothers wedding cake from the late 70s, lol. Cheers Graham.

If its a proper old bitsa house there will be weatherboards under the masonite lining the internal walls. At least you have got to the point where you can see the architecture again.

Wow, you’re getting there. I see the wagon is still on site. Fingers crossed you get a solid offer soon. Hope you didn’t have to drive too far in the rain. Safe travels.

It reminds me of the "Winchester House" is San Jose California. There are tours of the place. It has quite a history, if anyone is interested. Kind of spooky history.....
