We're not allowed to call wines by their French names, in case there are some people out there who could misconstrue that an Australian Beaujolais or Champagne might be French.

You would think that the word Australian on the bottle would counter that belief

It's a Eurpean Union thing, which if we don't go along with, impacts our trade to Europe.

Yep! France won the fight in the WTO to limit the name of Champaign to one type of wine grown in one region of France a few years back.

I'm going to see the Doctor Who spectacular at the cinema today in 3D.
I need to tie down some stuff ahead of an expected gale.
It's going to be a good day.

I'll soon be ready for my Pixies World Tour. I went and got a passport today.
I am going to a special class for teachers who will teach orientation and mobility to blind students. They are eating dinner at a restaurant under blindfold.
I love Nasonex.

Winter has arrived and it's promising to be a bad one this year. I can feel the complaining (mostly my own) coming on.
I just finished my Xmas shopping. Thank dog for the internet.
I'm ready for a nap.

I slept like a rock today.
I have two more nights of work then I'm off until Sunday evening.
I'm still tired, and I don't know why.

I hate when something I order gets cancelled.
I'm having trouble finding a particular book. (Return of the Indian in the Cupboard in hardcover).
I have one more night of work for the week.

I slept like a baby last night.
Cried all night long about needing a boob in my mouth.
And wet myself.
