A big thank you to the Grundy employee who wishes to remain anonymous, who sent me a copy of the original theme music from Wheel Of Fortune during Rob Elliott’s reign as host for Christmas. It’s even better than I remember it. It certainly loops a lot, but you don’t notice it when it’s in the background.
Click here for the theme music (4.49MB MP3).

Here are a few select shots from Christmas 2006.
Christmas dinner: Roast turkey, potato, onion, pumpkin. And for Nattie a special Christmas present, three german style frankfurts.

A photo of the cupboard under the stairs. The light was off and the flash and focus did a good job.

Good morning Clinton,
Thankfully the caller who claimed to be driving on the hume highway after eight drinks was pulling your leg. He is a serial pest caller, coming up with all sorts of ways to annoy hosts by slipping the John Farnham song “You’re The Voice” into the conversation. This was one of his better efforts.
Hope you had a good Christmas!
