Mrs lovely One and I this weekend shared the first weekend off since we have been married. I don't get a lot of weekend time off in my line of work. So we drove down to the Twin Towns (kinda it's real names) and a stayed at a flash motor inn. Well it wasn't that flash really but it will do. It had the cable tv that Mr Chops enjoys. We dined at a local restaurant which we had been to before and tried the seafood platter for two. It wasn't earth shattering but it was a solid effort and it was ready really quickly.
The next day we drove further south and went to a small beachside town called Queensescarpement (not it's real name) we came away with many bounties such as marinated fetta and some pretty good fudge. We also purchased some tomato relish and a jar of apricot and passionfruit jam. The standholder actually had all her winning certificates from the local show so you knew you were getting prize winning product. She even had sampling which was nice. I am not all together sure however that it would win first prize at the Murgon show. Sorry gentle reader a old Chops family joke there. I am not sure even if I explained it, it would make sense.
We then went further south to Byron Bay and on the way had to stop for road works. As we went past the stop go man I saw some genuine aussie brillance on display. The stop go man had his car parked on the side of the road and his portable dvd player on the roof of his car. Some would say that this was dangerous or lazy. I just reckon those who said that would just be jealous that they had not thought of it first.
Till Next Time I Am Not Sure How I Could Get One of Those DVD Players to Work In With My Job,
