I got a cherry on my cake!

As promised I have some more video to share.

This time with Frankie's 'Welcome to the Pleasuredome' as an appropriate accompanying track.  I'm finding it real enjoyable to browse back over the video.  Significantly better than still photo's and maybe I should vlog in future?  Anyway this one is of The Forgotten World Highway.  Pretty remote with about 20km of gravelly roads, and no longer a problem for me and the Ten12

See: The Forgotten World Highway

In all of the days travelling, nothing, absolutely nothing went off the 'plan'.  Everything was on time, no hitches, no issues, all good.  But of all of the most insignificant things when I got home I found that a small leather loop had gone missing off a favourite leather belt.  Bum!

I kinda knew I had it on the Coromandel and a few 'can you check please' emails later Randal wrote back with the good, the bad and the ugly news.  In that yes the day before he had found it on the driveway, had binned but, that the bins had not left the house!  So after many a happy (not) hour and day I guess trawling through bins and dark corners of clothing and workshops, he finally finds it!  Yay!  And I got it back last week and is now on the belt. Woo Hoo!  Thanks again Randal!

How insignificant you might think.  But of all the things that went good this was the only microscopic, minuscule, irrelevant issue for me.  But when I found it in the pile of post on the floor last week it brought a huge smile to my face.  From the biggest problem to the smallest then in the face of adversity whatever shape or size it may be, if we look hard enough we can always find something, even if to others is irrelevant or insignificant, to bring a smile back to our faces.

And sadly I heard that a friend, Scotty, a great mate of Kev's, committed suicide the other week and also with great sorrow write that Elaine's mum died in hospital last week too.  I feel hugely for everyone, including Tony's family, as all of them similarly need to get something, maybe small, nonetheless good and positive and enlightening sent to them soon, maybe even in the post.

So after a short wait.... I finally got the cherry on my cake,

I think that it is now time to find cherries for everyone else too, don't you think Baby?

Speak soon
