On the theme of top shelf performances by flyers over there, David Cox topped the Combine again yesterday, for the third time in 4 weeks. The bloke is running red hot.
Great news for David, great flying from him ans his birds Murray.

All the best for your move Murray. I’m sure it will be all worth it in the end. There are some cockatoos that will miss you.
Then time to relax and a well earned rest.
Thanks Andy.
I will admit that a week or two ago I said out loud that I wished I had never laid eyes on the place.
It's been too long, too hard and too expensive, and we are too old for this.
But we are nearly there, and the place is worth more than we put into it.
But there has been an unexpected benefit.
I have had to do quite a lot of work over the last month or so. Today I started the mower and spent a bit over an hour and a half mowing around this place so it's nice and tidy when we leave. Had a sit down and a cold beer, then cleaned the last of the garden tools and stuff out of the shed and cleaned the mower.
I am feeling and looking fitter than I have for a while. I've lost weight and have more energy. I am nearly 70 and I'm supposed to be dying of lung disease.
Maybe next year

Great news Murray. When will you be moving in yourselves now?
Apologies for not replying, Andy, but the last few days have been a bit of a blur...
We will be moving into the cottage on Thursday, ready or not! It is like a bomb has gone off, there is stuff everywhere, still no bathroom, but all the plumbing is replaced and ready, and the boys go in tomorrow morning to start putting the walls and tiles and shower and vanity in. They are not worried, but I admit I panic at times.
That is good news, hope you settle in quickly and the birds love it and settle not forgetting pussies as well

Great to hear that you are on the home straight Muzza and that you are feeling full of life, long may it continue mate. I hope you have many happy and successful years in your new home, I expect the boys will be happy too
Well done also to David, great flying by him and his team.
