Thanks all y'all for your kind thoughts. And sorry to hear that you've not been well, Tony.

This is my first time on an actual computer in over a week. We've been visiting with family in Kambra, Nimmitabel, Cooma, currently in Bega, tomorrow night back in Kambra before heading home on Monday.

It's been a great few days away, punctuated by the odd meal or three. Chrissie lunch for 9 in Nimitabel, Boxing Day lunch for 20 (plus two babbies) in Coma ... 11 for dinner here in Bega last night ...

Stay safe and well, all y'all.

Yes. Benz E200 Cabriolet. We actually needed to drive it with the top up a few days ago, as it was too hot to have it down.

The car's name is Calloway :up:

Good ol' Calloway! I get your point about the sun. We've had magnificent weather up here in Coffs for the last 2 weeks, Max 27-28 C with cooling breezes all day, but it still gets hot driving the MX5 around sans top, especially with my follicly challenged bonce... :biglaugh:

Personally, I regard Christmas as the triumph of consumerism over common sense - irrespective of religious sentiments, or lack thereof. I like the simplistic celebrations of the season we did 50 years ago, when life was less complex. Perhaps, I am a nostalgic old bugger living in a bubble. :?:
