Hi Jean and Mel Yes I know, I’m still ‘flying high’, and should probably fade into the (west aussie) background off in celebration land. Instead, here is a link to my pics on the day, mostly of my Brisbane morning walk - then from the Royal Exchange where you both feature. http://www.flickr.com/photos/81538021@N00/sets/72157594308969254/
Twas lovely to meet you both!
