Late again - as usual. We are in for a hot day to-day but not as hot as the players in the Australian Open are facing (43c). Now, that's hot!!

Thanks for taking the message Sue. I have been on Ann's thread and done my duty. I'm usually ahead of her because of the time difference, and she's not ready for me - so I go away, then either forget to come back or I'm still asleep when they are busy!

The response time on this thread is unbelievably slow!

Sorry everyone - I had a phone that meant I had to ring someone else.

Hello Ann - if Berona doesn't pop in today I'll send her an email and let her know :-)

Yes - she was quite capable of handling it so she got to keep it :-). I'd forgotten we went out in the morning.

Allan Report 13 Jan 2014 22:23

On the way out we go via Melbourne to Auckland. On the return, the trip finishes in Christchurch, so we fly from there to Auckland, then a direct flight to Perth. I'll have to check on actual hours in the air as she went last year. But her holiday was a self-drive! Ironically, we will be visiting many of the places that she visited :-0

I am not going anywhere today Linda nor did I go out yesterday :-| we have been decluttering :-D

NZ is a long trip for you, Allan. Will you fly to Sydney first or direct to NZ?

Allan

Allan Report 13 Jan 2014 22:09

Nah, Linda! We've managed to do that ourselves :-D :-D

We may come back for a trip, Mersey, but not this year. We are off to NZ in April for a twenty day tour. I'll send Persie a copy of our itinerary and see if there is any chance of catching up :-D

So which garden centre are you gracing with your presence today Sue :-D

SueMaid

SueMaid Report 13 Jan 2014 21:41

How frustrating Linda :-(

I don't envy you the commotion of the construction over the road, Allan :-(. When we moved into our house it was one of three houses in our part of the street. It was eerily quiet at night and very noisy during the day.

Allan you can always come back over here ;-) ;-)

LindainHerriotCountry Report 13 Jan 2014 21:38

Oh dear Allan, that is not good, small houses will reduce the value of your palatial establishment :-D

Allan

Allan Report 13 Jan 2014 21:36

Hi Sue and Linda,

Linda, I've got copies of the floor plans. To say they are dogboxes would be an insult to dogboxes. The units are being built down to a price, not up to a standard :-|

I did sort the keyboard sue, then it has gone funny again :-(

SueMaid

SueMaid Report 13 Jan 2014 21:29

Hello Allan :-D

Did you get the keyboard sorted Linda?

I never knew one of my grandmothers and I can't really remember the other one :-(

Hello Allan, you will be able to watch all the construction, then warn your friends off from buying one of the houses in case it falls down
