Great! I'll be there shortly -- traveling, needless to say, via Hamilton's
antipodal point, in the southeast Indian Ocean roughly halfway between Perth
and lush, exotic Heard Island.

Do I need a special visa of some sort in these worried days? Perhaps I could

Come to think of it, you might want to keep a mop and bucket by the door.
