Sue,

A Lamington would be lovely - must leave some for Evelyn though and I haven't much room left after that delicious food - fortunately the strawberries have improved since the rain stopped and the hot sun appeared.

What does you brother have on the farm - animals, fruit trees, vegetables, flowers?

Does anyone search on Trove newspapers - found lots of pieces about my ancestors - one had won prizes for his oranges, lemons and "shaddocks" (grapefruit apparently! When he died his obituary mentioned his famous orchard.

Would love to talk to you about the opening ceremony, Cynthia - I'm sure some of our ancestors were pictured there in those wonderful opening scenes - several people I know had younger relatives taking part - they were so excited.

Ooh ahh nearly bedtime, Sue, it has been really lovely.

Our warmest thanks for hosting us and giving us such wonderful hospitality.

Time for the washing up Robert, or stacking them in the dishwasher! Where are you hiding?

See you all soon.

<3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Hi Reece

I remember the kinks...I still have an old album of theres that I bought with me to OZ when I was 16 .

The Steak was very nice ,my Brother cooked that he is going to stay a few days ...probably go home on Monday ,he has a four hour drive to his place.
He has a small farm inland of Perth city,nice in Winter very hot in summer.

anyway back to our party I shall go and fish out that Kinks Album for Reece.

Anyone fancy a Lamington :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Hello, Hello...

Lovely to see you all - yes, it is cold, but the fire is lovely Sue and enjoying such good company and food and music. Love your red wine - well chosen and love Sally's salmon and will just try a little steak thank you Sue. All goes well with Anne's lovely salads.



Beatles are fine by me. Would you like to hear this one I brought along specially by The Kinks (who remembers them?) called Thank you for the Days - says it all really. I may weep a little, though. Tell me what you think?


Seems the wrong way round with the weather - cold down here when it has been so hot this last week in the UK and not many miles from the Stratford Olympic site. Lots of helicopters flying around for a day or two so I hitched a ride out to the airport and that gave me a good start. Just as well my passport was still up to date wasn't it? All very, very busy but most coming into the UK and not the other way 'round!


We're all thinking of you Evelyn and wishing you a happy birthday and so pleased to know you are with your family on your special day.


Arthur, what awful news about your verge - dear oh dear! Please don't overdo do it though - sounds pretty backbreaking to me but I can scarcely lift a garden fork these days! A trowel yes! So I would offer to come and help but would only get in the way of the real "workmen"...

Evelyn got me to make Lamingtons for her but she is'nt here so I will put some by for her just incase she drops in later.

I won't start to early or i will be had it by the time you all turn up so I think 7pm my time will be 12 midday uk ...Sylvia I don't know your time there .
My uncle in Woodstock Canada tells me it is 4.53 am there when it is 4.53 pm here are you in front of us or behind.

I have my rings up out the front so you can't miss the house,getting some wood in the morning but will be ready with my trusty Red wine when I get back .

Drop in tonight getting dinner going now.

Sorry I must miss the party.

The County council has insisted that I replace the grass verge - cannot set a precedent for the remainder of Kent.

My nephew visiting to do some of the heavy work.

Have a great time
