Happy New Year to everyone, Kiwi & Didley must be well and truly soused by now and sleeping it off?
Also for our R's to have a great second half of the season campaign ahead, starting with a much needed home win.
Happiness and good health to one and all.

You are correct. The Pass at Byron Bay.
The most eastern point of Australia.

Looks like a wonderful beach, how would it be for sharks? Also how is the access, say from Melbourne where my older brother (non R, not a chip off the old block like myself, he was never into to it) lives, a retired ANZ banker, 75, unfortunately battling prostate cancer right now, but quite optimistic regarding his current medical treatment. How is the medical system in Oz, quite broken here in Canada, we have both been on a waiting for 5 years for a family physician. Last year visited an Australian lady podiatrist from Brisbane (originally from Vietnam, with a Scottish last name) who scared me, assuring that I had a cancerous lesion on the sole of my right foot and that I must get an immediate referral to our one and only dermatologist in town. I ended up at a nearby government run acute care clinic for that referral, where an excellent stand-in family physician told me, "I know a thing or two about feet too and that is not a cancerous lesion, simply scar tissue from an old plantar wart (that was removed 10 years ago), but I did check your blood sugar on your way in and it is 15.5 (non fasting) so you are type 2 diabetic and I have to put you on Metformin immediately and would you like a trial of Ozympic (that I am now also on)", together with BP and Cholesterol medications. I returned to the embarrassed Brisbane podiatrist who emoved the offending scar tissue at no charge.

Wow, where do l start!
Fantastic beach, about 1.5 hrs from here on the Gold Coast.
Wategos Beach, to be precise.
Yes, the sharks like to play there too.
You would have to catch a flight to Sydney, then Byron Bay.
Our medical was brilliant but has depleted over the past 25 years.
With all the medication, the joys of getting older. ( see my medical post ...... soon )
