Ruby, good to hear your visitors have arrived safely.  Have a fantastic time. 

Jackie, your photos are terrific.  Glad you got good weather.  You and Vi look great. 

Liz, I'm so delighted that you went to the BBQ and enjoyed yourself.  I hope you keep it up.   

Mcd, I can't believe what happened to your son.  How infuriating!!  We watch Border Security all the time - sometimes it's the UK, OZ or NZ ones, and sometimes it's the Canada/USA ones.  Hard to believe that the officer did not have to provide his ID number - so they can do as they like and can't be held accountable???  That's just not right!!  The police have to provide their badge number, so why don't customs officers?  As the Aussies say, I'd be spewing!!   

My eldest granddaughter is flying to Western Australia tomorrow morning to attend her father's funeral.  (Long story.)  He was 52. 
It's freezing here - 2C minimum yesterday. Brrr………
