well, that was simple!!!

Don't know what happened! One minute I couldn't post and the next I could! Thanks Bee for asking for me and Mary for emailing the url. I'm in on my new computer!

First, I need to say - Rosie, I'm very sorry to hear about your dear Ceilidh - it's so sad when we have to say goodbye to such dear friends. Shannon sends his condolences also.

What a blow also to see that someone had infiltrated the BB Chat and been so downright nasty and sneaky. A hope it was a once-off. At least you know who it is.

BEE: Glad to hear that you continue to be filling up your days with activities. We think of you often.

TENNEH: All the best for your move and also in looking for fulltime work.

Winter has arrived here with a vengeance. Cold, wet and blustery today, although all you in Nth America (and NZ too probably) would laugh if you knew what we consider all that to be. It looks as if the drought has broken in S.Aust as well now, as we've had 50 mm odd (2") of rain in the past fortnight here on the edge of the desert, the most for the year and about 2/3 of what we've had altogether.

Our boys have been on the move. DS#1 is almost finished with his studies in Prague but will then spend 2 weeks travelling through Europe and another 3 weeks in SE Asia. We're just hoping that no more volcanoes burst their boilers before he's safely home. DS#2 who works for a travel agent, spent an all-expenses paid 5 days in Thailand the other week. We were on tenterhooks until he came home, but he assured us that although they stayed one night in Bangkok they didn't hear or see any fighting or disturbance at all. DS#3 and DDIL are moving to Melbourne sometime in the next month, as she has secured a job at the Melbourne Library. Thankfully he can work for his company from home and his bosses are quite pleased that he will now be a local presence for them, saving quite a few trips interstate. For us though it's a 15 hour drive or a 4 hour drive to Adelaide before flying or taking the train. At least it's not North America.................yet.

Hugs to those who need them. All the best to all,
Fran in Sth Oz.
