Oh, thanks, Cathy!

Don't rub it in! :) I feel really embarrassed!

There are far more deserving images, than mine, to be on the front page! Oh, well, there's not much I can do about it - the computer allocates when photos are to come to the front page. I just wish it had an inbuilt embarrassment detector - if it did, it would remove at least one of mine, today! :)))

No, I did not know the Perrins were moving. Are they going to the Sydney Con, to teach?

I look forward to catching up, again, soon!

Cheers

Phil

Congratulations again Phillip, 2 on home page-pretty special!! (homepage hog)
Just got back from four days in FNQ and managed to take a few shots there, I'm hoping to contribute a little again to this wonderful site. I really wanted to participate in this latest project-I had no idea how little peace and tranquility I come across on a daily basis! Hope we can catch up soon!
Did you hear the Perrins are moving to Sydney in the New Year, the Carroll's might have to be the ones to do the visiting next time. CC
