Happy Tuesday all, and Kobber enjoy your reunion!!
[quote=Kobber;22782155]Good morning and welcome to Kobber’s Tuesday Questions. Last week I was surprised by the number of QOTD’ers who said they couldn’t recall their 21st birthday celebrations or that they didn’t do anything special for it. Although the age of majority here in Australia is 18, most people have some kind of major party or dinner for their 21st, which they (usually!) remember as clearly as their wedding.
I won’t be around for the next week – am off to New Zealand for a reunion with old friends. MidwesternBookWorm will take my place next Tuesday… thanks Bookworm!
