  • I'll just pop another shrimp on the barbie. Sydney Australia. 17 hours direct to DFW.
  • Went into hospital for a back operation. I got on a set of scales for the first time in years to check in and nearly fell off in shock. There is no place better than a hospital to consider your future health.
