Default What are the chances of that happening???

Well, got here on Sunday lunch time, feeling oh shit what have I done. Father-in-Law took us out for lunch whilst it totally pissed down - so much for the Australian weather!

Came home and F-in-L packed a bag, drove off to go and stay with his girlfriend for a few days. At about 8pm some coppers came to the door, I though shit that didn't take them long to find out that DIMIA had made a mistake and I was not a desirable person to have in the country! Anyway what happened is that my F-in-L had been knocked down and killed. All within 5 hours of us starting a new life here with him.

Familiy arriving today and tomorrow for the funeral on Friday. What a good start - not!
