Fixed

Apparently Melbourne Cup Day isn't a public holiday in Ballarat. (Rather ironic as it turns out. A Ballarat-trained horse with a jockey from Ballarat won the race. And although I'm not into racing, I was happy that a female jockey rode the winner for the first time.) I found out it wasn't a holiday when the electrician said he would come today to sort out a couple of items.

Back in September I posted this picture:
and mentioned that light above the mirror which was in the wrong place. (And crooked). Now it is where it should have been:
mounted on top of the cabinet. Hooray!

Of course that leaves a hole to be patched, and a bit of wall to be painted, but at least the light now shines where it should (on your face) instead of just illuminating the top surface of the cupboard.

And I was amazed when I found out that Melbourne had a holiday for the Melbourne Cup. Not even a long weekend. Just a sudden holiday on a Tuesday. Weird. The Race That Stops The Nation doesn't really stop much, but it does give us a happy news report instead of a horrible war story.

Having grown up in Melb, the public holiday is normal (if weird) to me. I just assumed it was state-wide, but I was wrong!
