I have 'T' shirts to remind me. 1. The 2005 Sydney new year celebrations. 2. The hot springs at Rotarua. 3. The palms of Waikiki beach, 4. The island of Alcatraz. 5. The Venecian hotel gaming parlour Vegas, 6. The Boston Red Sox celebration world series. 7. The Ship hotel at Seahouses Northumberland. All significant places for different reasons.Pity I can not wear them all at once. Liked your writing in this one Paul. Sid.

A great way to cherish your well traveled memories and friends. If I owned the hat I would pull off the bull and cook some small cookies for Winnie-the-Pooh and the opal Koala. Seriously though Paul, it is a delightful poem. Karin Anderson
