I suppose it's not too early to start thinking about it...maybe the end of April like last year? Saturday April 30 is the week after Easter. We could go to the same or a different part of Williamstown or Altona, or maybe a pub for lunch.

Remember those mosquito coils we burnt? It's a wonder we didn't catch malaria off what bred in that creek. Shocked

Yes I remember those coils well,I used to lie awake watching the little bits of ash fall off,and wonder why the mozzies were still buzzin in my ear.

I'm happy to go along with whatever you decide, but a pub sounds good. lol

I LOOOOOOVED Egypt Eileen, and would go back there in a shot, but not at the moment sadly. Hopefully all will be well in a few weeks, but reports this morning have said that now there is more unrest happenning in other areas of the middle east, domino effect.
