Thanks. Pat, but I don't think this mob have even heard of GG. And I've
never heard of them.

'North' in the northern hemisphere means cold, long winters, wolves,
snow, ice, freezing fog, polar bears, tundra, endless pine forests,
Inuit. 'North' in the southern hemisphere means heat, humidity, cyclones
(hurricanes), insects, desert living, dry country, red desert, snakes,
Aborigines.

I think Glenn would have hated Australia. Mind you, I still like
listening to Bach when it's 42C, so maybe GG would have done so too. If
he had come here to play, at least he could then have taken his gloves
and overcoat off. Maybe.
