Once again it has been awhile.  2022 has hit us almost with a bigger shock wave than 2021.  The latest on the news is widespread flooding across Eastern Australia plus of course the war in the Ukraine.  It all puts any issues we might have into the insignificant box.  The last weekend, a significant portion of SEQLD flooded - and we were lucky to get away with a damp laundry and some water damaged wood in the garage.  We had spent the weekend in Tasmania visiting Dave’s daughter, and our trip home was affected by the weather - we got diverted into the Gold Coast, had to take a bus from there to Brisbane, and then drive home a very round about way to avoid all of the flooded roads.  But we did get home safely, and all was well.  

We are now looking in to booking our flights to UK/Ireland for July/August and feeling nervous about not only possible Covid disruptions but also war in Europe.  Could it spread?  Could we be heading into WWIII?  Nobody knows at this point.  And other than all of that our biggest issue is trying to work out how to get a car seat in London Heathrow!
