Ah, Melbourne, my Melbourne! Best place in the world! :wink:

Sounds like you've been following it a lot more closely than me, dadpad. Friends tell me they've really enjoyed it.
Thanks for chatting, folks. And now I must head off to bed. First day back at work after the break, tomorrow. <boo, hiss!>
Night night.

It stands to reason that if you were not ‘here’, you must have been’ there’. Well I looked ‘there’ and you were not there either. So what is going on? Are you with the CIA, CID, FEDs? What...
Nonsesne.
I was neither here nor there...I was elsewhere.
you can't be in two places at once when you're nowhere at all.
I wasn't nowhere at all.
I was ELSEwhere.
Stetson the size of a planet, and no brain.....'tis sad.
Only the Beatles could be here there and everywhere.
That depends, of course.
Oh...and is it a metric or imperial elsewhere?
Me, too.
But not very successfully.
You guys are so lucky, your work is done for a Monday and for me it's only just begun. Any idea why Australia was so successful at the games, say in comparison to Canada?
Dadpad may have an opinion on that, Tryagain. I know very little about these things I'm afraid. Sorry.
