I will never forget that, we lived in the
apartment's less than a mile from the house I live in now. I was still working in construction and I had to work on Saturday and Terri was off. When I
got off work and came home Terri said "Frank Zappa passed away", I was shocked and taken aback I had no idea he was ill, what a great
loss...

I haven't had contact with my mother since 2008 or something. She is a mental patient and has been my whole life.
I hear now that she has been admitted to a mental care hospital and will remain there the rest of her life, we have until January 3 to clear the
house.
Merry Christmas.

If it's not too personal Bonny, why do you have to move out?

Actually the family of my mother's husband is responsible, and they will sling everything into the bin. We want to make sure that heirlooms,
jewellery, photos etc are saved. They don't have much of value.

Bonny I had a similar experience with my moms husband when she passed, he was just going to throw everything away it was outrageous how careless he
was.

The cristmas season is rapidly approaching, BF and I will be going to see the new Miyazaki in cinema, Dad's foot is recovering and he'll be getting a
double knee stent to fix the aneurysms in both knees, so he should be able to walk painfree afterwards.

Me & Mrs Eddie have just got back from a 500Km (one way dist-1000Km round trip, should be far enough from the neighbour!) to Kingston se a coastal
town in South Australia and put an offer on a property (Ex Vet practice, just call me James Herriot - with a good mancave for Hi Fi's and guitars out back)- to escape from next door- who have been giving us shit for
last 2 years ("Bogans from Hell"- maybe that could be a Zappa LP ), to which we
will rent out our grand Cohuna house. Looks like its ours and a good place to retire to (PS I retired last Thursday but work want to me work casual
2-3 days a week remote from KIngston, guess that will pay for all the Lobster we will eat

Belated merry Xmas to all and best wishes for the new year. I’ve been flat out with family stuff. Look’s like a nice spot to retire Eddie. It’s
not that far from the beach!

Thanks Guys, if I was any closer to the beach I'd have Lobsters on my forehead 
PS Kingston is the home of Larry the giant Lobster and maybe even some drowning Witches
