Been a long few days here. I'm still working from home but I think there may be movement towards asking us to come in a bit more in the coming weeks. My end of the country still has higher Covid rates than in other areas of New Zealand so I am not overly keen but if I must I'll go in but stick to wearing a mask for now.
My risk appetite is low as I have elderly parents I may need to visit / support again over the coming months as their health declines. There's few family near them so I am more at the front lines of care / response than others living further away than I, and that's fine.
At work our manager of 10 years abruptly left his role just before Easter. Our team found out one day before he left. We're now getting a new interim manager for 9 months who will develop new strategic directions for our team which may well lead to a restructure although no one is saying that yet. So understandably I and my fellow team members are all a bit nervous as to what is to come. Yet there's nothing I can really do so have to roll with the process and see where things end up.
Have been watching quite a few 80s movies on a free streaming service called Tubi which I have been enjoying. Some good, some not so good. After a day in front of the PC at home working I tend to want to get away from the same desk I would do BBSing at and opt for some tube :)
Figured I'd better post something to confirm I have not left with Elvis :)

80s movies are pretty good. I used to use Tubi.

Same here...but have been getting into the old Westerns (especially speghetti<sp>)
on You Tube. Pluto TV is also another one I like to use.

Filmrise has a whole Westerns channel that's worth a look.

Snap Pluto TV here too... was using it to watch some Star Trek for a
while as they were the only place I could find that were streaming the
new Discovery show outside the USA for a time.
Heard they've also started running the Stargate series on there.
Gah, just the thought of having to push that lawn mower... ah well :)
Best, Paul
I feel your pain! It's not been warm enough to have the lawn grow.
It's the leaves from the trees that have fallen that I've got to attack. We've had rain every 2/3 days that don't let them dry enough to mulch
up. I really will get to it, I promised my wife! :(

Lawns? I don't do lawns!

Hi all.
Well it's Sunday morning here, I'm adding in three new nodes today and responding to a few emails and netmails for help etc. Once done I need
to mow some lawns. My younger son is staying with us for a week before
he moves to a new city. It will be strange not to have him living
nearby. I hope his new move / job go well.
A reminder I'm going to start posting welcome and admin info over in FSX_NET now instead of here. I encourage you to sub to that echomail
area if you are not already linked to it.

Oops. I just now deleted that one because I didn't think it was active. I'll try to restore it.

see them. I'm just catching up on echomail. It seems once I pulled the transportation echo this one has been full of cars talk :)
