D Leaves for Aus!

Image
As i write this, D is just about to land in Singapore- a 13 hour flight from London.  And then gets on another 7 hour flight to Brisbane. Eventually, she'll get to Townsville, Queensland to work in a boarding school for a year. It's sad for us; very proud of her.

As D turns 18 today, we went up to the high street and proved it.  She walked into the wine shop, asked for a bottle of Pimms, and promptly got carded. The clerk and staff had quite a laugh when they saw it was her 18th birthday today!
