Good morning everyone on another sunny warm autumn day, once again in the mid 20s.

Went for my usual walk and noticed that we diesel owners are being persecuted. $1.10 a litre more at the pump.

One a brighter note I had only been home an hour when the doorbell rang - it was a courier:

Yep, my new passport had arrived, I applied online on the 12nd February so it took 61 days or 8 weeks and 5 days or two months and 2 days (I used an online calculator). Of course at least a couple of weeks of that would have been postage between UK and Australia.

Anyway, tomorrow is my eye operation for the second cataract to be removed to I might be a bit late.

It’s all go!

Have a good one.

Take care…
