I Dunno Trevor!,

After two months of sticky, sweaty summertime I'm looking forward to fall and even winter.

Somehow summer has lost a lot of its appeal since I don't get it as school vacation anymore.

-plus it gets dark enough for projection much earlier in the winter!

I'd sure love to visit London, though.

All I ask is a wide screen and a projector to light her by...

Yes Trev its bloomin heaving in the UK.
We live in the North where its still not quite so bad but as you go south from here it feels like its closing in on you sort of thing.
We`ll be elbow too elbow falling off the cliff edges soon here.
Strange to think you were just down the road rather than at the other side of the world.
Best Mark.

Mark,in this day and age we are all,"just down the road" [Smile] We were in the air a total of just 20 hours(via Singapore).The big 747s scoot along when they want to. We were "upstairs"where there are 24 seats.Very nice and on Singapore Airlines the service is great! I managed to arrange daytime flights.Whilst travelling over the arid,uninteresting middle east I couldn't help thinking,"what is there there that is worth fighting for?"-(as I sipped my champers!!)

Same thing in the USA. People pouring in illegally and no one can seem to stop it. Hard to imagine the huge USA getting crowded out, but it is.
Glad you had a great trip Trev, and above all, a safe one. Did you shoot a few reels of widescreen duplex ? [Big Grin]
We all envy you living in uncrowded, uncomplicated, and beautiful NZ.
