G'day Forumites!
After some discussion with mods and community guides we have decided to start up an afternoon thread. @Shaz51 has kindly offered to help me with the tagging at there are a number of us.
The idea for this thread came to me recently when I was on the Good morning thread one afternoon.
Pull up a chair, bring a tea or coffee and let's chill out. 🙂

Oh those kind of days off are a pain @Shaz51
My day started off nicely, got to spend some time with my son. That was lovely. Rest of the day got a bit poo but I'm going to try to focus on the good part with my boy. He's a champion.

Yesterday was quiet with no Telstra. I did bits and pieces and had a good day. Today looks beautiful outside but I'm about to hang out the washing and I fancy it will be quite cool out there. More deliveries coming today so I will be home most of the day. I'm having a great time in my new "home",in my new town.
I hope you have a good day too. Remember to take the time to look after you. You are a special person.

Good afternoon @Shaz51 @MDT @Jayneinpain @SJT63 @saltandpepper and all forumites here! I hope your afternoon is going well!
Late afternoon with coffee and sultana scones for me here in cold Melbourne with knitting of a beanie in the go as we speak. I find knitting beanies comforting and relaxing as I know the pattern off by heart and can spend time creating different colour combinations with the amount of rows I have to knit. It calms me down and the best part is that I get to drop it off to the charity I knit for to give to a deserving recipient to keep their head nice and warm. Win win for everyone involved!
Take care!

Hey @Judi9877 @MDT @Jayneinpain @SJT63 @saltandpepper
Taken a while for me to find my inner child. Worth it tho.
Waiting for son to return from walk. Keeps saying he wants to have a talk.
I see workplace issues as related to Mental Health.
I was shocked to read 5 riders have died on the job due to pressure.
