Portraits of the Queen have begun mysteriously appearing inside the prime minister's department in Canberra since the election of Tony Abbott, Australia’s new British-born and staunchly monarchist leader.

Researching:
I am researching the Wotherspoon family from the Old/New Monkland areas of Scotland, some moved to the Leslie and Kelty areas of Fife and I'm having problems linking the Wotherspoon's from Leslie and the Wotherspoon's from Kelty. I am also researching the Clusker family from Co. Meath in Ireland who moved to West Lothian and from there to Fife............"Vita non est vivere sed valere vita est"

Wonder how long it'll be before someone gets the black marker out and the Queen starts wearing a mustache and glasses ;-)

Kids with special needs are not weird or odd. They only want what everyone else wants...to be accepted.
