Thanks everyone who posted positive comments! I really appreciate your thoughts.

However, I think that it was really unnecessary for 'shreeya' to post what you have. Assuming that I would be ashamed of my husband???

I am glad that everyone else here got what i was getting at, as yes it can be a problem in some countries! Is shreeya so naieve to think that it wouldn't?

Thank you to Serendipity who knew exactly what i was getting at!

Cnidiara - really looking forward to meeting all the ANZACs!
