Besides coffee, the one stop we had to make was at Sprengers for carrots for Hermes. He is still agisting with the neighbours but it's good to have them for when he comes home - which could be any day now.
It was sad leaving home this morning because the sun was shining brightly - not bad weather for a road trip - but it would have been even better weather for mowing. But that will come soon enough because tomorrow is scheduled to be fine. And it better be because it's markets day again and we have to get there earlier because the markets are now on Summer time - which means they open and close an hour earlier!
The country on the way to Toowoomba was quite wet with dams in paddocks overflowing so much that in some places there seemed to be little paddock left. The road was pretty bad with a repeat of Latimers potholes. It was just as well M was keeping a safe distance from the car in front or it would have been very difficult to spot the pot holes in time to steer around them.
The police did not seem to be out in force except for the start of the Logan Motorway on the way back where several cars and a bike had been selected for special attention - the very kind of attention we can do without.
On the vehicle front, I have now received another toll evasion notice - this one from one of the tolled tunnels in Sydney on 14 September ... which is all well and good except neither Lars nor his number plates were in Sydney that day. The Queensland toll people are much more organized and send you a photograph of your car being a criminal. (I will be contesting the Sydney one and hopefully the hoops will be not too difficult to jump through.)
Otherwise all is well at Latimers.
