[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 374802, member: 1991"] G'day, people. TM, have a quieter day than usual. Fran, sounds like your weekend has been blown out of the water. I hope father in law is OK. Sharon/LDM, I hope you can find a good car for your nephew. easy child rang tonight, told us she and SIL1 have had to get a new car; hers blew a head gasket and wasn't worth fixing. easy child also rang to chat about the election, it's just about all that's on TV. husband & I have been watching the election coverage too. It's not looking good, no matter which party (we have a two party preferred system here) that you support. We are heading for a hung parliament, which can cripple a country, leaving a government unable to make any decisions. UK had to form a minority government earlier this year and now it is almost certain to happen here. The results will take a while to come in fully and I'm certain some seats will need to be recounted. On the interesting side, we have (among the new Members of Parliament) the youngest ever, at 20 years old. He doesn't look old enough to shave. He wasn't old enough to vote in the last election, this would have been the first Federal election he was old enough to vote in. And he got to vote for himself! We'll know more tomorrow maybe. Time for bed. I've had a really busy day, on the go from the time I left the polling booth before 9 am. Enjoy your Saturday. Marg [/QUOTE]
