I bet a lot of younger people I guess you could say haven't even seen Windows 3.11 until then Pat. I'm only 25 and feel old based on that - the OS came on what, 7 floppy disks?

I didn't see the request for the collander on the head image. I went and grabbed this off my shutterfly archives and uploaded to smugmug. I guess I can't download full res files from shutterfly? Anyone know anything about this? hmmm..
Anyway, this was the first time we left our youngest son in the care of his big brother. When we came home, this photo was on my camera. lol

Now, lets see that funny bumper sticker!

Pity I just missed :
Saw an elderly lady in a motorised wheelchair last couple of days, sticker on the back of chair read
"If you can read this I have lost my caravan"

Very original, I must say.

Only three Dave..? visit China, they know how to pack 'em on a scooter!

Here is your vineyard mate, as you can see your table (front & centre) is waiting for you. This is the Tapestry Winery in the beautiful McLaren Vales, South Australia.

So, to keep the theme going, lets see people enjoying a glass of wine at a vineyard.
