   Ahha!  That's what I'm missing!  One of my daughters did a clean up in the   
   lounge room.  Now I know what to look for.  Don't worry, it is here.  :)

   We're having trouble getting rid of it!  Let's see... it's just gone 18h00 on   
   10 May: I've still got the ceiling fans running, all the (usual) windows and   
   doors are open, and, I'm running around in a t-shirt and underwear.  What's   
   wrong with this picture other than the ugly mug typing this note?  :)   
      
   Apparently there's a cold weather spell due.  I say 'fat chance', and am   
   backing the local TV weather guy's prediction of no proper autumn and a warmer   
   than usual winter.  We've already broken all above-average temps for every   
   month so far this year.   
      
   Look out!  I think you'll probably get the opposite: an abnormally cold summer.   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
