    @Summerabbacat it's the Oxley Highway that runs between Walcha and Wauchope. And it's Thunderbolts Way that runs Walcha - Gloucester - Newcastle.

    "While this one appears to be winding down; I am sure there will be another coming around the bend." @centexhairysub oh, absolutely! And it will answer some of the questions already raised here.

    Fantasy Glades was at Port Macquarie I think. It even had a Snow White and the Seven Dwarves cottage, if I remember correctly. Yeah, Timbertown was at Wauchope. I was there on the weekend actually ... it was all sold off last year some time.

    @Summerabbacat works for me! I can see Trinity doing a Shirley and Liza tribute show! Oh, and I heard the other day that the Big Bannana has been moved . . . or is going to be moved, or something! All those places I visited as a kid . . . Fantasy Glades, the Big Bannana, even Timbertown ... all gone or going! What's becoming of this world! Boo-hoo! BTW ... that song is EPIC! I love it!

    @dboggs9700 well, the whole thing about these Thompsonville stories is that they are mostly linked together in one way or another, so even if a story does get wrapped up, you will most likely pick up the threads in another one. It's always a conundrum as to when exactly I wrap one up, but sometimes I just get to a point where that just seems right!

    -- Chapter Twenty -- Before we knew it, the night of Trinity de la Creme and the Sisters of Divine Disgrace finally arrived in Macquarie Harbour, and of course everything went to hell! One of the performers was running forty minutes late, stuck in traffic on the highway. What was even worse, the missing performer was also bringing the main trunk with half the show’s costumes and props. Panic levels were rising fast. Backstage was pure chaos. Feathers, sequins, and stressed-out que

    I was in my teens, and Dad and I used to piss ourselves laughing, while Mum (a very straight Catholic) would be disgusted! There was also Benny Hill and Dick Emery ... Benny was OK, but I wasn't a fan of Dick ... or at least that Dick! LOL

    So, when I went searching for it, the next thing that came up was this..... Man, I use to love Dave Allen! hahah

    Aaahhh the memories... She said, "No way, I'm hangin round till Gum leaves. Besides, I don't wanna leave Jack around a party on his own Have you seen him? I think he's trying to crack on to Wumba; he's already tried to mount Isa And he'll definitely try to lead you astray, Liana!" 'Australiana' lyrics by Austen Tayshus (1983) 🤣🤣🤣

    @Summerabbacat I have absolutely no idea where to go with this ... at least not right now! lol

    -- Chapter Nineteen -- And so, the strange adventure that 2020 had become, just kept getting stranger. But for the first time in months, it felt like we were all finally rolling along with it. Leo and Trish pulled up a couple of minutes later, after Kevin had managed to call Pippa, and so it wasn’t difficult to convince Kevin’s family to stay for one more coffee. I gave my parents a call and they came around shortly afterwards. The party rolled on. In the back yard of our ho

    I guess I'm lucky then that I usually only get knocked for six for about 24 hours then!

    I had it twice, but I was sicker from the vaccinations than from the disease itself ... they hit me like a fecking garbage truck! Only lasted 24 hours or so and with a few Panadol after that I was able to soldier on. I was concerned about catching it though ... as I have a few health issues I need to be careful with.

    Haha @Summerabbacat I was probably thinking more along the lines of Mr Humphries in Are You Being Served! lol We still see people wearing masks up here ... and I occasionally wear one if I suspect I'm a bit fluey or something ... MP

    @CincyKris we certainly had our challenges in Australia, but out here in the country where I am, things were largely okay. The cities got hit much, much harder; both in lockdown protocols and the sickness. Most of our staff worked from home, but as I didn't have a good enough internet connection, I was pretty much in the office all the time ... and to tell you the truth, I loved it! The busiest day probably had three people in the building, and they were all in other wings of the building, so I hardly saw anyone! haha Anyhow, not to make light of the whole affair, it was a challenging time for everyone, and for those who lost love ones I can only offer my heartfelt condolences for their loss. ♥️

    -- Chapter Eighteen -- The first weeks of lockdown settled over Thompsonville like a quiet, slightly awkward blanket. Small town life just rolled on as best it could. No one was screaming in the streets. No one was hoarding toilet paper in a frenzy. We simply . . . adjusted. The rules were clear: stay home unless it was essential, keep 1.5 metres distance, wear a mask in public, no large gatherings. Life didn’t stop. It just changed shape, and we changed shape to fit. Kevin slotted int

    Thank you @Summerabbacat and yes, you'll be seeing more of Toby. And on the topic of expanding roles, well there'll be a bit of that too. 🙂
