Today is Australia Day :-D

I just thought that I'd mention it.

I don't know why, as in this household, apart from a barbeque breakfast, we don't celebrate the Day.

Still, just because we are a couple of misery guts that should not preclude others from enjoying the day which in so many places culminates in the obligatory fireworks display :-D

Australia, quite rightly in my opinion, makes a big deal of my birthday every year!

Many Happy Returns of the Day, Sharron :-D

I realise that there's still just under half an hour before you catch up with us, but enjoy your day :-)

Enjoy the day, Allan, although I have to say that I feel for you. At your age you. can't even enjoy a day off work now, can you? :-D :-S :-0

MY AGE!

How very dare you! :-| :-|

Who needs to enjoy a day off?

The cheek of some people :-P

OK I can no longer run after the young girls, but I can still stalk many older ladies ;-) :-D :-D

Happy Australia Day to Allan, and also some of my ancestors who went on a 'cruise' there in the 1800's. :-D :-D :-D

Allan

Allan Report 26 Jan 2020 08:29

Now don't be ashamed, dear Aunt!

Many of today's Politicians are descended from the earlier settlers, and still display those genetic characteristics which brought their forebears here in the first place ;-)
