Tomorrow I am off to Cloncurry.
Nothing important but apparently SWMBO & I will have been married 40 years on the 15th of April so I have sort of been told to be there.
Or else & then some mumbling about big sharp knives & bits of my anatomy!
So this means we got married in the early 80's when SWMBO had Big Hair & I simply had hair.
It has been pretty good, lots of up & downs & round & rounds, trials & tribulations but also many, many happy times.
Still love the OLD thing (she could be a sort of Land Rover) & hope we get another few years yet.

BTW I was going to put this in Grumpy Old Buggers thread but then thought Nah, if she found out!
