Coming ready or not!

So...the day has finally arrived.It is just after midnight here in Brisbane and we still have 90 minutes to wait before we can board the plane but we are all checked in.The woman at passport control was interested in my being a teacher and she despaired at the youth of today and said they need their mouths washing out with soap.It will be good to escape the heat down here for a bit.We spent yesterday in Brisbane firstly in the air conditioning of a shopping mall and then the Gallery of Modern Art where their 10th anniversary exhibition was pretty much the best I have seen there. (Pics to follow when I get the chance).So shortly we leave for Dubai via Singapore and then on to Manchester later this very day.We're coming, ready or not!
