[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 73306, member: 1991"] G'day, everyone. We had the APEC public holiday today, an extra one for the year we hadn't expected, but an attempt to keep as many people out of the city as possible. The Chaser boys have been told they could face 6 months jail for yesterday's stunt (I posted on Watercooler) but it didn't stop another stunt today - they drove up to the checkpoint in a limousine labelled "Canada" - only this limousine was made of cardboard and was worn by straps over their shoulders. We're told it's reached the US news. Linda, I'm jealous of your peaceful time - use it to rest. Kjs, I hope difficult child can hold it together - I know he wants to be in Honors, but can he handle the stress? Motivation alone isn't enough, he really needs extra support. I hope he's getting it from the school. Beth, the genealogy trip sounds really good. Do you have some good genealogy software? husband is into it for our family, other branches of the family have also used our data. We've had rainy weather for the last couple of days, it was really heavy at times today. Our rainwater tank overflowed and husband realised - the overflow pipe is blocked. Probably some unmentionable animal crawled up the pipe and died, maybe months (years?) ago, but guddling about in the rain is no time to sort it out - he had to open the drain on the tank and let out some precious water. Maybe over the weekend, if it fines up, we'll be able to clear the outlet. Not good. difficult child 1 had husband inspect a car he wants to buy - sounds too good to be true, but it looks like he's landed on his feet with this one. At last life seems to be coming together for difficult child 1 - the prospect of a new car, an apprenticeship looking likely, and then? We have our suspicions about what he plans to do from there. Fingers definitely crossed for him, that things keep working in his favour. Enjoy your Friday. Marg [/QUOTE]
