Today is our 6th wedding anniversary. Yay us!
We're off to Newfoundland for a week first thing tomorrow. As the flight is very early, we're staying in an airport hotel tonight. Due to a recent terrorist alert, hand luggage is severely curtailed. No liquids, lotions or gels allowed in hand luggage - it must all be in the checked bags.
Newfoundland trivia - the island has its own flag, the "pink, white and green" tricolour. It's the oldest flag that contains pink. The pink denotes the English protestants (a mix of the red and white roses of the Tudors), the green denotes the Irish catholics, and the white is taken from the white saltire cross of St. Andrew, patron saint of Scotland and (handily) of fishermen.
