425 wandering again

So this afternoon I'm taking this massive long journey involving
25 hours in planes and another 5 or so kicking around airports.
I'm meeting Glen and Kevin the afternoon of the 16th, then racing
off to rendezvous with Lilli on the 17th, whence we will be seeing
friends in New Zealand; then I'm returning to Australia to do the
ceremonial opening of the last bottle of Ray Ward's last vintage.

Kevin, by the way, is recovering decently from his amputation and
prosthesis fitting and will be allowed to dine outside his rehab
facility for the first time in monthes. It will be Glen's and my
job to prevent him from overdoing it on his first day and first
opportunity to touch wine this year. Since I will be holding the
pursestrings, it is possibly a possible task, though I wonder
about his state of mind during the long weeks of tea and lemonade.

P.S. I am informed that I should have no problem with Internet
access so should be relatively here most of the time. No need
to remind you to be good; I know you will be, plus there's the
specter of me lurking. I will encourage you to offer interesting
food-related stuff, unlike this -
