Let this be a lesson...

You will note in the post below that Nicholas has found some spare time to tease his father. He is currently in the Freemasons' Hospital (memo to Nick: don't put "Catholic" on the forms which ask for your religion) having his appendix removed. He went straight from the doctor's surgery to the hospital so they took his symptoms seriously. Julia is doing the early shift and it looks like he might get home on Friday. Any nephew or niece who still has his/her appendix should note that being disrespectful to their father may bring on an attack.
Melbourne is still covered in smoke but the fires seem to be under control. Flooding in Lismore? Report please.
