    The Next Day Thread Sat 28th March

    Good morning beautiful people.
    Another gorgeous day dawning here...the weather has been awesome this week, nt a cloud in the sky and the light is that really bright, crisp light.

    Pan, I'm sorry you have to go outback mate...i don't know what to suggest but I can sympathise. My brother is a highschool teacher and was offered a job outback (can't remember the name, it was passed Bourke tho...literally out the back o' Bourke) anyway, he could get his points right up by just doing 2 yrs at this school (then he could choose where he wanted to go) He was about 32 & single at the time & I encouraged him to go...well, it was a DISASTER...everyone assumed he was gay because he was 32 and didn't have 12 kids to 8 different mothers. There was nothing to do but drink and that's what everyone did, there was no movie theatre, no music, no sport...nothing but a pub. He used to drive for 10hrs back to Sydney on a Friday afternoon & then drive back on Sunday...just because he couldn't bare another weekend there. He quit it after about 18months.
    Anyway, hopefully your place is not that bad...but I do understand.
    When do you have to go?? At least you have a couple of months under your belt...

    Eski - how you feeling today?? I only did yoga & pilates last week...no P word...will go today though.

    Good morning Angel, and all to come. Cool here this morning, and looks like a nice sunny day. All the better for making love, and music.
    Pan, are you leaving your beloved beach to go bush?
    Have a super weekend everyone. Stay strong, and safe...................G.

        Hello.

        G, yes, I am leaving my beloved beach behind, but I'll be back every few months for a couple of weeks at a time, until Christmas then maybe I can wangle another 5 months - maybe, but doubtful.

        Angel, hubby is a high school teacher. I get what you are talking about, but he has been living in the stinking hole for over 20 years. Straight out of Uni, almost. And it has hmmm, five pubs I think. It's a town of pubs. I don't think it's as bad as Bourke, but I hate the place. Hubby would like to leave as well, but his job keeps him there.

        I think we are leaving MY home just after Anzac Day.

          I'm doing doggie washing, but it keeps raining and then sunshine, so I'm back and forward to the clothes line. Need to go shopping soon. Then down to the beach for our walk. If it's raining, too bad. I only have a month left, so I'm not missing out on anything. Unfortunately, somewhere in all of that, I have to clean the house and sort out what is staying and what is going bush.

              Pan
              Can't you husband leave and work somewhere else? I thought teachers (especially male) were in demand? I disliked the small mining communities, but more because of everyone wanting to socialise together all the time.

              Arranging first trip down south of state next week, but everything is almost booked up already!

              Hope all have a good weekend. Daylight saving finishes - thank goodness, no longer have to get up in the dark!

                Blondie, it's complicated, but it involves changing states, leaving a very senior role to be relocated anywhere in Qld and lose all points, which are massive, only to then be reassigned to junior status. Also he is an art teacher, which are not so very much in demand.

                  The starfish lives

                  The starfish lived. It was beached again today in the same spot, would you believe? It has to be the same one - I've never seen one so large and it had the same broken leg.

                    Amen tot hat Blondie! I am SO OVER daylight savings!

                    I hope all is going okay today. I'm still catching up from yesterday and yes feeling better today Angel thanks for asking. Doing some homework (yee ha!) and just finished the groceries. Better go finish unpacking them. By then it'll be time for dinner! Hope your weekends are keeping you all busy!

                      When does Daylight Saving end? I need to know when I'll be back in time with the rest of Aus.

                        Ugh Pan, that doesn't sound like there is a lot of hope...a lower salary/more junior position in exchange for the lifestyle?? I'm sure there's a whole lot more to it and if there was a way you'd be all over it...
                        I'm not looking forward to daylight savings ending...I don't know when it ends over there. Tonight by the sounds??

                        And awesome on the starfish...they don't have a very big brain do they?? LOL

                            I actually voted for the Daylight Saving Party last weekend. I knew they didn't stand a chance, but I wish the old adage that Daylight Saving fades your curtains and the cows won't know what time of the day it is would go away from some of the residents of Qld.

                              Oh that's right...I saw a bit of pauline hansen & that footy player with his mate Jacko on Rove...was seriously the funniest thing I'd seen for ages.

                              Oh, it was Cobar where my brother was...a mining town...ugh...
