well thank you nanna we had a good time I only fell on the train twice
frightened the life out of some lady she was asleep in her pod as I was walking up the isle that's a joke for a start I meant staggering up the isle was more like it when the train lurched and over I went right on top of her of course I had to have help to get up and I was trying to apologise at the same time what a game I could see the fear in her eyes especially at 5-30 in the morning she probably thought I was a drunk or something ,it was very embarrassing all round I made off as fast as I could once I had been lifted clear of the entanglement
the second time on the train was uneventful thank goodness it was a straight forward fall and there were plenty of blokes around to help pick me up.
the second lot of falls I had which there were only two again was in the hotel room I was coming out with the houselady or the lady that cleans the rooms not sure what she was called really but being a gent I opened the door for and stepped backward to let her pass me I had my walker an all and over I went again she jumped out of the way with a worried look on her face but she was a fillipino or some such person and she did not know what I was on about ,my wife was trying to get me up but had no luck when one of the staff a big strapping wench about 7 feet.6 inches and built like a navy cruiser flag ship came by and as the door was open she looked in and quickly eyed the situation up and ducked in the doorway and got me up before I could say could you give me a hand please she said ''there you are young fellow'' which pleased me no end as I was beginning to feel my age by then the other fall I had was again uneventful a straight forward fall no drama . we had 3 nights in the hotel which was far to long cause id done my dough on the second night there but I had payed for everything up front so we were ok my wife went on playing and gave me 35 dollars so I went on a machine and won 59 dollars so I packed up then I could not tell you how much my wife won or lost because she always says I kept my head above water cause I always share whatever I =win but its a bit of fun don't smoke don't drink ] a lot ]
so we had saved up for it so we wert for it the food was quite good on the train we had the steak and runner beans and mashed potato and gravy and a complimentary drink to go with it beer or wine or juice I had a beer cause I was getting quite thirsty by then oh and a bread roll and butter and sweet was a chocolate mud cake with cream the cream was tucked in a little pallet and I thought it was the butter for my roll and spread it all over it until my wife so gracefully told me
me what I had done anyway it tasted ok to me the hotel breakfast was great it was a smogasboard or help yourself it was a pleasure to eat there and no wonder I did not hurt myself when I fell the extra calories and stuff I put on saved my bacon the food there was to much mention when we arrived they had upgraded us to a delux room over looking the sea and coastline but had no balcony which we were hoping to get but were told that none of them had balconies I suppose to many people jump off of them after a night in the casino or something well nanna would you mind if you shared this with eastern cedar and mr cedar and heady and jill mrs a birke and yvonne and pat and sha sha & fred in fact anyone that wants to have a look, oh and nader and
whats that ladys name that starts with F it will come to me sometime
so,all in all we had a good time oh we took a council bus around the city of Townsville and had a ride out to a place called Kelso we got a day rover which cost us 7 dollars and 50 cents for the two of us and my walker but they even had places for electric wheelchairs and the driver gets out and puts a ramp up for them to come aboard I was very impressed or maybe I have not been on a council bus for many years
and have wised up themselves to the plight of people in electric wheelchairs well mates that the first mate I have used I think so far
I will say goodnight to all of you good people im truly sorry if I missed anyone out back there but there are so many of us now I hate to say that but I have so see yer mates and me old mate colin steady down now boy give them moose calls away matey see yer love to you all
