It is Father's Day in the Southern Hemisphere, so I'm saying Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there! Sadly my father, one of my all-time heroes, is passed on, but he lives on in my heart.
Have been having lovely celebs today with the whole family together, lunching, browsing books at the Brisbane Writer's Festival book display, shopping and having dinner together tonight.
So hope your Father's Day has been great, Aussies and New Zealanders, and anyone else who celebrates this important day today.
And all you fathers in Christchurch New Zealand who saw your beautiful city toppled by a 7-scale earthquake yesterday, our thoughts and prayers are with you. We ourselves are very thankful that our daughter left to come home three days before the earthquake hit.
Happy Father's Day!
