Favourite quote

What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.
It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead.

ANZAC DAY

We have a public holiday today, in remembrance of our solders, while it was mostly about those who died for our freedoms, it's also a way for us to pay respect to those who are still alive and even those who are currently serving in the military.
This morning while mostly fine, we got a slight drizzle of rain that most thought was fitting the occasion (not really a train wreck when you have synthetic hair)

After the dawn service, many head to McDonald as it's the only coffee and food provider open at this time of the morning. I found a corner table away from the crowds - well, only about 80 people here wanting a morning coffee and or breakfast but that's 72 people more than normal for this shop at 6.30 am


As for me, after my morning coffee, wife wants me to start painting the fence - wonder if it's going to rain some more.
