White coffee - thanks: or maybe not....... in NZ I had Calci-Trim in my coffee etc which was just fat-free milk with added calcium. Here in the US, it is unusual to have milk in one's coffee. The main means of 'whitening' it is by adding "creamer". Now why one does not add milk I am not sure when one looks at what 'creamer' is made of.... (double-click on the photo and read the back of the sachet). Mind you, when reading the back of the milk carton, I'm not so sure about the pureness of milk either! I always used to think that all the talk about 'food additives' was a little excessive, but now I can see that it is certainly a big deal here in the US. I don't know that we have much of an issue in kiwiland and I think most people get their information from US-based web-sites. I'm looking forward to making a vege-garden sometime in Spring/Summer so we can have nice, fresh veges, but I'm not sure that I'm quite up to milking cows though.... Posted by Hello

I remember you garden at West Melton and believe there is a photo somewhere of you proudly standing in fron of it (I think there was a spade or some sort of prop near you).
I remember another photo of you sunbathing while Jacqueline and I were spending the day painting the fence...
