Yesterday actually... Spent the day sorting everything out around the house after two enjoyable weeks in New Zealand visiting my brother and his family. Today will be spent relaxing and sleeping Daytime intercontinental flights are not what they are cracked up to be. Departed Auckland at 9.00 am, arrived Hanoi 9.00 pm, 6 hours time difference... Shattered The young man (5 years old) slept most of the way.

I wasn't told this at school, college or university. ... How did I get to 51 without knowing this protocol!!!
Thanks for the tip but there’s no mains gas where we live and the old fire was propane. I’m building a log store where the bottles used to be
