On my to do list before I shrug off this mortal coil is to visit Australia. Now I have no real reason, just a hankering to go there. As in most things in life a reason is required. No I have, not so much a reason to, but a "no reason not to" really.

My sister has just arranged a house swap for 3 months next year (March-May) where she uses the house of a woman in Australia and that women comes here. Sounds like a good idea to me.

So

Paulie - get on the flight trail for flights to Sydney (maybe with a stop over somewhere on the way) cheers :)

Last night it was a tale of two games, In the APAT ME I was ticking along nicely when with 77 I see a flop of 7K*, all the chips go in, I mean he can't have KK can he  ;D ;D ;D ;D

In the PLO I got lucky so many times that it was humbling. Eventually end up HU with Grant and got well and truly owned. Nice one Grant well played.

Very well played last night Ger, a privilege for me to share HU with you and to get the run of the cards when I needed them was just my fishy luck TBH. Hope you"re having an amazing birthday mate, take care  :-*

Belated birthday present today - The Merc passed the MOT with only one advisory - a slightly sick cat  ;D

It has four so that expensive repair can wait  8)

Oh and when you pick up the car after it has passed its MOT, how many of you are convinced it is driving better than it was before it was tested.  ;D ;D

Driving away after an oil change I always think my car is purring contentedly like a cat sat on your lap after a feed  ;)

A great social occasion was enjoyed last night with some of my finest friends... In recovery mode contemplating a beer.

I took a few poor pictures on the phone and they can be found HERE
