The Fires are still very much alive and out of control across the state here.

I'm not sure if that will work.

The Bunyip State Forest is quite near to us.


Where are you located in relation to the map?

I'm fine Mr. T

The weather has turned spring like and I'm listening to Beverley Humphreys on BBC Radio Wales.

In the "arrow" point from the "bunyip" block.

DR Druxy, I have heard that Robert Horton was...well, difficult. Is that true?

I really didn't represent him that long to get to know him well.  However, I did get the impression that he wasn't easy.

We are to the left (West) of this map. Gembrook is on the edge - a fire in Gembrook would see us under direct threat.

There have been MANY small fire outbreaks that are closer.

Are East and West the same directions in your world as they are in the real world?

Of course not.  Everything is reversed.  It snows at low altitudes in Austria and get warmer as you climb every mountain.

In NZ the number between 5 and 7 is pronounced with an "E".

I hope sometime soon. I have to send her new reviews. I'm seeing Guys and Dolls and West Side Story soon and after I see them I will put those (and some other) reviews in the mail to her.

Ginny, that was what I learned about the items I took to the Antique Roadshow.

DR Laura, we also learned about the "IKEA factor," our appraiser's name for the lack of interest in things like sterling silver flatware, porcelain china, and cut crystal drinkware.  Not to mention fine table linens.
