Anyway was it actually 2 years ago now that I was last in Melbourne? Seems a lot shorter but as I've been instructed by SWMBO No More Interstate Trips driving at least I'm not allowed to drive all that far any more.
As for going to Perth you did show some sense by taking a train I've driven the Nullabour a few times now and if there was ever a sign of total insanity it's driving that trip. Now I just avoid Perth like the Plague as it a long way even by aircraft and days by driving from Adelaide.
Incidentally if anyone passes on a good way of getting rid of children will you pass them on to me please? My son is now harassing me to do things for him and while he has moved out and married in January last year he's here nearly every day. And only about 5 KMS away.
The daughter is a little better as she at lives a decent distance away several hours driving but whenever anything goes wrong I'm expected to drop everything and drive up there to fix her problem. Mind you my promise still holds true if either of them tell us that they are going to present us with a Grandchild the Mobile Home gets packed up and we are taking a holiday of about 35 years. Slip in some new SIM cards into the phones that are prepaid and untraceable and we're off.
