Sunday was Mother's Day in Austria, Germany and Switzerland (as well as Australia, Canada and the US). I have shamelessly plagiarised this joke from a blog I read called Ms Mac - written by a Scottish lassie, married to an Aussie living in Switzerland. She calls it her favourite Mother's Day joke:

Why is Father's Day not celebrated in Switzerland?
Because in Switzerland, every day is Father's Day!

Boom, tish!

[And hello to the Canadian visitor wanting to know how to kill off a Russian vine. I don't know - but I may need to by next summer. I can report that my vine has grown about 5 feet (that's about a metre and half - a bit more) in two weeks . It has reached the top of the bare wall and has tendrils waving about over the top looking for somewhere to go.... I think the only option is down the other side. I hope the neighbours won't mind this invasion....)
