    The death toll is now up to 4 children dead, two boys and two girls. Four other children are in a critical condition, and another in a serious condition. I believe they were all grade 6 children celebrating their last day at primary school.

    Meg had a teenaged son, Marty Jackson, in the original, played by several actors (Ronald Korosy in 1979, Andrew McKaige in 1983 and Michael Winchester in 1986). He eventually grew old enough to be a trainee prison officer.

    There was a stepdaughter, Tracey Morris (played by Sue Devine in 1980–1981 and Michelle Thomas in 1984).

    I heard that too, but then he apparently showed up at national cabinet.

    Mind you, he may have done it now...

    I went to the audiologist yesterday and now there is no good reason for me to go back out until my appointment for a booster on 16 February.

    I am the only person I know who has RAT kits. I have two boxes of 2. One bought off Catch back in mid-Nov (just after they came on the market). The other box I bought off Amazon au for $18.98. When I looked about 2 weeks ago the exactly the same kit was being sold there for $39.95, more than twice the price - price gouging,

    if I end up getting free tests off the government because I am a pensioner, I will sell the two I have for what I paid for them (unless I use them first).
