Random ramblings from the cluttered brain of a Brit ex-pat North Devonian trying to keep cool in the steamy summers and warm in the frosty winters of The Great White North.

A Very Special Day
The Fourth Day of November, Two Thousand and Eight.
A date to remember.
A date for celebrations.
A date for congratulations.
A date for special messages... and this is the very special message I received today!
Yes, it's my Birthday today. Thank you Callum, I love you lots and lots and lots!
And I believe there's something else VERY SPECIAL going on in the USA today too...

Vote Early, Vote Often
Waiting for a bus? A two for one price special at Walmart? Waiting for the Bingo Palace to open?
None of the above.
They are patiently waiting for more than an hour outside the Ormond Beach Public Library for their chance to vote early in the US Presidential election. Daily voting hours have been extended to 7:00am to 7:00pm to accommodate the unprecedented crowds who want to take advantage of the early vote.
So now the big decision is.... who to vote for. McCain & Palin or Obama & Biden? There's not much danger of forgetting their names on the way to the polling station.
