 Yes Rob  -   
Some of us down here would love to have some of 
your nice 'balmy' weather, if only for the relief of a day or two.  
Yesterday here in Nelson, New Zealand, we had 27 C and I'm starting to 
wilt, but we will have more of that before the leaves start to 
fall. 
I'm definitely not a summer person. 
Regards, 
Judith Harper

   it's balmy here in 
  Nova Scotia as well: 15 C on Thursday, and today is supposed to top that... 
              but our 
  friends in Australia and New Zealand must be laughing at us...

    My family would agree regarding the recording of the Sinclair ancestors who 
    came to New Zealand in the 1850-1900 period. My Father never spoke about his 
    Father (my grandfather) and  the family of three sisters and five 
    brothers also never mentioned there early family life.I am also guilty of 
    not supplying any info for the records and the family keep reminding me that 
    I am now a senior citizen of 73 and to compound the fact have organised a 
    Golden Wedding Party on the 25th March just to make the point that time is 
    running out. So I must to research go and rake the old brain for the 
    forgotten past of my life. It might take many years but records are an 
    essential part of our life today for future generations to ponder and wonder 
    where they fit in to the picture.
