Sorry. <br />Middle, Always a pleasure to receive a comment from you. July 4th sounds like a rough day for you. I laughed when I read July 4th does not mean anything in Australia. I recall being in the UK and being surprised July 4th was an ordinary day. Oh, how naive I was. william Peacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00223601480542461802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1556371561007953336.post-63988091997405030302015-07-07T20:57:42.460-07:002015-07-07T20:57:42.460-07:00July 4th is my husband's birthday and the date...July 4th is my husband's birthday and the date my Mother died...so...here in Australia id doesn't mean anything at all - ours is Jan 26th. I remember when they redesigned our only Picture Theatre and announced it had Wheelchair access...we were so pleased but only to find that the toilets were down a flight of stairs - no access and the only access was in the Flyer...both theatres still had steps...no access so you could buy a ticket but not go in and not use a toilet. We had a field day in the local paper with that furphy... but still would have preferred access. On a lighter note but ridiculous - am unsure if I have told you this but a friend of ours bought a pair of Sheepskin boots when he was overseas but didn't check the box till home...there were 2 left feet and wasn't worth the cost of returning so he very magnanimously presented Don with the boots as he said "It wouldn't matter so much as you won't have to walk with them..." He seriously thought he was doing Don a favour. He was so pleased with himself.Middle Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09962830669606760640noreply@blogger.com
