Forgot to do diary lately.   We have suddenly been presented with $17.40 each via the Japs, and will send ours via Mrs G on Monday when she goes into town for xray.   Always feel rather wary of parting with so much money with period of waiting. 

Mr Mezger ((an Australian neighbour)) gave us jam - so kind of him
