Evening Both. 
7c today, sunny with gales of around 50, dropping at 9pm to the 20's.
Yes, flying Emirates to Dubai then on to Sydney, leave on the 14th, having 1 week in Sydney then 3 weeks in Cairns, have got the flight details and ticket into, got to get the ETA sorted and insurance again.
Didn't have brekkie as i stayed in bed, o/h made a roast chicken dinner for midday-ish, will have my portion of chicken with some butter chicken gravy, yummy, have frozen 2 butter prawns and 3 butter gravy portions.
Will need to make some chapati's unless a few i had in the freezer are still there.
Put a new ink cartridge in the printer and it wouldn't work so will have to go to Sainsbury's to get some, had used quite a bit of ink printing info out for the trip, always keep spare ones but bought these in Apr 2017 so not sure if thats the problem.
Mollie, Yes, with 6 of us it was great, catching up on missed time, i will be cooking for them when they come next, probably when we get back from Oz, they love the curries i make, i used to make them fudge when they were younger, they used to stay over at the old house and we used to make meals and cookies.
Yes, March is Autumn in Oz but it should be fine.
Emptybox, Yes, a Chinese eat all you can Banquet is about the best thing you could have, and with the selection of starters it's great, we just started with battered king prawns, salt and pepper ribs, chicken strips, satay chicken sticks and spring rolls, you get 6 of each on a big plate, of course you can reorder again or change to a different selection, but we didn't want to get full before we started, which is quite easy.
The round trip for the taxi's was only £30 but i gave them both a tip, always do.
Enjoyed The Voice, looking forward to DOI tonight, at 6pm.
