Have just ordered a silver ACM card holder as we are going to Melbourne in a few weeks and I don't want to worry about that issue.  Will see what it's like and may order another one for DH :)

Off to Barcelona, Croatia for the most part, and then Prague. A month in total Mid July - Aug. Think I need to buy more summer clothes

It sounds like your dreams to travel have been answered CP - do you have relatives over there?

CP,  sounds lovely.  you do need new clothes.  I like drip dry slacks and those pre wrinkled tops.  No ironing.
We have been told that we have to get written permission from family,  to leave Australia, after our disastrous trip to Turkey last year.  i am never going OS again. (  Tasmania isn"t OS.)  We will holiday in Australia.  Next Sunday we leave for a week on the Murray Princess,  a paddle steamer which travels down the Murray River.  Then to Coffin Bay for a few days. 

I have been using my ACM silver Wallet.  Easy to slip into my pocket and phone in other pocket. Also if i want to take a handbag, i can take a smaller one.  Nothing fancy, just more convenient .

That will be lovely CP. Accommodation is very expensive when you are away, so now you can save it.

Chookie I have seen the Murray Princess many times but never been on board. I'm sure you will love it. DH and I spent some time at Coffin Bay last time we were in SA. We loved it. Very restful.

DD and I went shopping this morning. I have been looking at a new handbag for a while. I saw these two and couldn't decide between them, so I was really bad and bought both. They are quite similar, but different IYKWIM.
