I did just have a phone call from the Qantas Baggage Courier to let me know that he was a bit late, with my bags arriving sometimes between 3:30 and 3:45. This is more like the time that I expected to get the bags in reality, knowing that 11:30am was a bit too ambitious.

Right now I am just trying to remember what I bought for various people, and what is where in my bags. I know I have a heap of DVD’s and CD’s, mostly travel videos. And T-Shirts. Oh, and two large coffee cups from the conference. Amd I mean large and heavy. I hope they have survived the number of flights. But apart from all that I am not quite sure what is there. All I can remember is that I brough back a heap of things. Too many in fact. I even brought back some shopping bags. After all sometimes the bag is enough. Getting a present with the name ‘Buckingham Palace’ on the plastic bag that it comes in just says something.

I have almost got through all my mail… Just a few more to process… And some orders too. Not too much thankfully.
