quintessential NQ

Gotta love living in NQ! Front page of today’s Townsville Bully included classic North Queensland stories... ‘‘First irukandji sting of the season’’, ‘‘Snake strikes’’, ‘‘Stinger net shark rescue’’, ‘‘JT [Jonathan Thurston] perfect with the boot in Four Nations Test’’ and to help you with your cyclone preparations you have the chance to win one of 10 generators! The paper isn’t complete unless there is JT story. The only thing missing is the quintessential croc story, but I think that may have been last week when a 3m+ croc was captured off Maggie Island! 




Wranglers put a bite on shark story
Oh dear, Grace is competing in a surf carnival this Saturday hopefully it will be uneventful & no front page story. The stinger nets are out & they will drag the nets first too double check for any nasties. :S

Reno update: Showers were forecast for the weekend so I didn't paint the path. However, I did start on the last of the painting inside the house. The last room I have to finish painting is the original lounge/dinning area & it is also the entrance to the house. The kids mainly use this room to watch TV & the room is the entrance to the house. I have no idea what to do with the room. Make a entrance, sitting room/lounge & study area....currently the room is a dumping ground for our surplus furniture. We have 3 sideboards! All of our everyday living is in the new part of the house.

before the move in - pic taken from the front entrance. 
After move in  - the outdoor furniture was only inside during Yasi

   How would you use/decorate this room?
