A tribute!?! So they'll be getting someone who looks and sounds vaguely like Cliff Richards:-)) We've had quite a few Days down our way - all at wineries. Lionel Ritchie was here last year. |

Sue, in WA it all started with the Leeuwin Winery (Margaret River) Annual Music Event Held every Summer, which attracted some of the top Artistes in the World: now every man and his winery has jumped on the band waggon! |

Tec, Welsh dragons or not, they all get a bit hot under the collar. |

Good evening and good morning all. Dull but warm here with an expected top of 37. Glad to know Carole and Mick are OK - although I would think there could not be much left to burn in Mick's area, after last year! Hope everything goes well for all who live in those areas. |

I think that happened here too, Allan. The Hunter Valley started it off and now a few others have taken off with it. |

Tec - I know how you must feel. On my Dad's side, my gr/gr/grandparents were pioneers of their district and build a house, later adding to it and using the original house for business. Although not on a grand scale like yours, their house is now used as a restaurant and is heritage-listed. On the two occasions that I have been there, we have made sure we have a meal in that restaurant - and I have a wonderful feeling of 'belonging' there. |

Hello Berona, if someone wanted to come and do my housework, I would be delighted, but when my children come home, I still end up looking afterthem |

My lot definately don't do my housework - they leave me to do it all. Although my daughter makes sure the children clean up after themselves including putting used cups and plates in the sink I still seem to have to clean up after they've gone. |

My mother has just had a quote for fixing some cracks in the ceilings. The fellow quoted her a ridiculous amount and then told her she'd have to get one of her sons to take down the two ceilings that need doing. She's getting another quote today and OH is going to be there. I don't want either my brother or OH taking down the ceilings as I feel it's too big a job. However I think that's up to them to decide. Neither sound too keen. |

I think that the upside down people must all have gone out before it gets too hot Tec. I am just waiting for my virus scan to finish before I shut down |

I think that sometimes if workmen don't really want to do a job Sue, they just give a ridiculous quote to put people off |

Linda, we recently had our gutters and downpipes replaced. |
