Melbourne?????
#1

Against all odds, there is a long shot that I will be taking a business trip to Melbourne in the next few months. Drinks are on me...

I know Jules lives there - but am unclear about who else may be close for a Shuttertalk-type evening...

Only going to miss me by 600km. Sad

not sure about the former.

You see what the offer of 'drinks on me' can do.Smile Can't make it myself as I will be in the canaries, although it's only a shortish hop. Bit tricky, sneaking on the aircraft these days.

Funny you said that. My wife said today, do I fancy going to America for a holiday. So I said whereabouts, and she says Florida. I said what do you want to go to Florida for. and she says Disneyland. I weep.Wink
But you never know. How far is Mississipi from Florida?
