Much against my better judgment I have been persuaded to start a blog on which to record our forthcoming trip to Oz and NZ. Kathy Pilgrim has set it up for me and told me to tell all my friends the address of the blog so that they can get into it but I'm damned if I know what my address is or what to tell my friends they have to do. Like most old codgers I will have to rely upon the children to sort it out. The trouble is Iam fast running out of time before we leave for the airport on Wednesday. Needless to say Marilyn has been packing for weeks now but I have not yet had the courage to unpack half the stuff that she is certain I am going to need. Will leave that to the last minute.



Have tried to put a picture on the page but have failed miserably. I had chosen a picture which Luke e-mailed to me of the Grandchildren in the Soapbox Go Cart that we built but the bloody computer says that it is not in a form that it is able to recognise so you will have to do without the picture.
