Davy, I would not get used to it.My great great grandfather came to Australia from Duns in Scotland in 1848 and I am now too far removed from that sort of weather. I like Summer. I used to like 40 degrees C but the old body doesnt handle that too well these days The trouble with Summer is daylight saving. It gets dark too late .Very bad for astronomy cheers Paul

Brilliant news Harry,, bet she got up and made your breakfast lol,, The health service in Britain could be the best in the world if the government invetested in it properly,, nurses are fantastic,, some doctors could do with a boot up the arse with there stuck up attitudes at times,, Left one stuck for words once,, was Meant to be diagnosing Carol and told her it was in her mind,, she told me, and when doctor came back in he got a right bollocking from me,, I told him him I was a mechanic and an engine can't say,, hey I feel sore here,, where a patient can,, male nurse thought he would come in and bully boy me,, told him to stand down or he would be in a lawyers letter to the health board,, Doctor soon changed his attitude. When he left the folk visiting patients in the same bit started clapping,, seemingly Carol wasn't only one being treated like an idiot. Thankfully this was a one off and majority are true professionals,, It would have been much different if we had not gone private Davy, my wife's problems started last November when she suddenly lost some of her mobility. GP decided it was a neural problem and referred her to the local hospital. We got an acknowledgement of the referral but no appointment. We paid for a private consultation and MRI scans on her back. It all came to a head just over a week ago when the back pain became unbearable. One thing that happens with private medicine is that you get a copy of all the reports sent to your GP. It was these reports that speeded up treatment after she was admitted to hospital. If we had waited for a NHS appointment with a neurologist then I don't know what the outcome would have been, when we asked the GP when she would be seen he said at least March/April, far too late in our case. Brilliant people in the NHS, poor support and management by the Government.
