Sun, 18th Feb, 2018 Bob & Margaret’s, near Mandurah, WA (Noel Jnr)



7.30am 23 degrees and overcast.

Headed south to visit Pete in Manjimup. Detoured first to see how Noel Junior is going in Gnomesville. Seems to be even more gnomes here now.



Made a cuppa and wandered around looking for Noel Junior. We couldn’t find him anywhere but his uncles are still there. They weren’t saying where he went though!! I took photos of them to compare to the ones I took a year ago when we left Noel Junior in their care.


Last year’s photos.


The green marchflies were horrendous so maybe he had enough of them and left!!

We continued on passing a little pub where a collection of great cars were lined up across the road.



As we had explored this area before we didn’t stop for any photos. Into Manjimup to meet Pete at his Mum’s place. He is doing some fixing up ready for her to come home from hospital.

Went into town to his sister’s café for lunch. She is also a really good artist and her works are on display in the café and for sale with some other local artists.

After a lovely lunch and lots of chatting we headed off again. I wanted to follow another road we hadn’t been on yet but ended up on forestry roads going around in circles. Got back out onto the bitumen and then headed north to Nannup. Found another road we haven’t been on from there up to Balingup which runs alongside the Blackwood River. We crossed over it where it goes upstream to Bridgetown.

Back to Bunbury then back up to Bob and Margaret’s. Another late drinkies with them then late dinner again. More Olympics of course.
