Nice to see you on here Ian. Come to think of it 'tis nice to see you anywhere.
These down under types are just as mad as we are and they tell it as they see it.

The only thing cold here is the Beer. Although it has now dropped back to 25 Celsius and just a few clouds in the sky, we were promised rain today but as yet nothing.
See ya when ya get here mate.
Cheers
