It was fortunate that we had FF last weekend - thunder, lightning and rain this weekend.

I'm sure we would have still had fun with the rain, but catching trams would have been a bit wet.

Catching the trams is fine - it's the bits before and after that would be problematic!

Yes, my weeds have gone mad, Brenda - but the roses and honeysuckle are in full bloom and it smells gorgeous outside.

You bet I have. I didn't hold back either. I have also emailed Nikki and Owen with feedback. Both positive and negative. I tried to be honest.

Good on you Cookie. I couldn't be bothered. Just won't stay there again. Terrific position but too expensive for the room.

I sort of mentioned that I had been stating there for the last 15 or so years and would never stay there again. Especially with the free trams in the CBD if DD has lots of parcels we can just jump ona tram and drop them at our hotel, or have a toilet break. I think it will be the Grand Hyatt with the club access next time. What is money, if not to be spent?  :D ;D
