When I lived in Papua New Guinea in the late 60's, we always
watched our luggage being loaded onto a plane before we got
on it - the local airline was infamous for loosing luggage.  Our
local service club had an account with the local clothing store
so that any visitors could buy underwear, shirts, etc. until their
luggage was finally located.

One of my vivid memories is of sitting in the back seat of a
car while the tyre was changed (a common occurrence on
the rough roads) and tatting, then realising the sun had 
"vanished", looking up to see three local ladies, clad in only
string skirts, peering in the window in amazement at what
I was doing. As soon as I looked up, they ran off, giggling
like mad (so I missed offering to teach them!  Three that
got away!)

Noelene in Cooma, where our local craft group of
knitters, embroiderers, etc, is rapidly turning into a tatting group
