I agree. I think it’s lovely. Lucky daughter.

She's gorgeous. She's just starting to talk. Wife just gave her a bath in the clothes bucket and then was trying to convince daughter to finish and start drying her. Daughter would say "Sit there" pointing to the bucket of water. So cute.

I think most people love the stage when the babies are around the 18 month mark. I think our ‘golden years’ were when the youngest was 2 and until the oldest hit 14.

Well wish me luck for tonight! I have been told I will be “allowed” to buy tickets in the Hamilton presale. Will be sent a code later tonight and can buy tickets between 1am and 2am

Probably only of interest to cruisers but I didn’t realise that Fincantieri ship building is located just near Venice. Most cruise liners are built there. I wonder which one this is being built?

No that’s my lot - less school fees but now more car insurancES

That's what happens with two P platers!

From the colours and shape it looks like the new HAL ship.

Disclaimer: I did have to do a bit of Googling

So ther Italians think Brisbane is a contender for the culture capital of Australia.

Brisbane is Australia's 'culture' city not Sydney or Melbourne, top ballet company says

In the context, given that the very impressive Li Cunxin is current director of the Queensland Ballet Company, that’s probably true.

So true. She never ceases to surprise us. Helps her mother already when I bring shopping home. Eventually she will grow up and tell me to get lost just like we did when we growing up.

Umm not everyone is interested in the royal wedding

Wash your mouth out!

Excellent and that will take a bit of a worry away with the new house build and mortgage.
Though did you mean casual or is causal something new in employment that I don't know about (highly likely)?

I want to see the dress but not interested otherwise.

Yes casual, been like that since I finished my apprenticeship January. It's a big relief.

Trades are being neglected and replaced with vocationally irrelevant and dubious Bachelor of whatever the flavour of the month degrees.
