I will take your cool Sydney breezes, many thanks. We have just had an afternoon downpour. I won't be going outside now. The humidity will be horrendous.

I do understand the $$$$$$ aspect of BC. My follow up appointments in Perth usually require a week by the time I have flown down, had the scans, appointments and flown back. There goes $1,000 over and above what I am reinbursed. More than I get in age pension.
