G'day Bob. Yes, you seem to be right about the weather. However, it will be back to its more common summer weather by Wednesday, according to the Weather Bureau, with temps in the 30's for the next few days.

I must say too I enjoyed your concertina tunes, particularly that first dancy one to the hymn tune (is it called "Precious Jewels"?) Best rendition of that tune I have ever heard, that's for sure. I got a couple of pics of you playing it, but you'll have to wait till I get my photos developed from my old fashioned steam-driven camera.

Charlie, I really wish you could have been there too - and Maine is looking some way off still due to lack of savings :-( I am going to have to put the little I have saved into buying another car shortly. This one is getting too elderly - but after another year of saving - who knows? I want to visit the UK too, at about the same time as freda did last year, but my hopes for this year are not high.

Sorry 'bout the thread drift.....

Jenny (in pensive mood)
