The travellers return

Hi All
Kate & I have returned from our road trip. We had a fabulous time and were very lucky with the weather. The op shops got a hammering and we came back with more than we really need - but that's usually the case.
It was great to catch up with our friends and we were grateful for the accommodation they provided.
Next weekend should be a great one as well. Looking forward to it!
See you all soon

Revisit Kate's

Hi All

Thanks Moo for the update.

I tried to put some pictures of Kate's place on the blog; after a frustrating hour, I gave up (Sunday night). I'll try again. Compare these pictures with the ones I posted in October '09.

The third picture is Kate's new shelving. What GENIE will appear if the stopper is lifted?

Great work Katie!

We await your next travelogue Moo.

Love to all Dad.

Travels

Hi All
Kate and I thought we should give a quick update whilst we have the opportunity to access a computer - Thanks Mel.
We have a lovely greeting at Hervey Bay airport when we arrived on Saturday. Jules hasn't changed a bit. Her four daughters have grown into lovely young women. Saturday afternoon was spent having a long walk along the beach and the esplanade in Hervey Bay. Jules has a lovely home and we spent the evening there.
On Sunday we had a day trip to Fraser Island. What a magical place! It was lovely to return there.
Jules was driving her Dad to Brisbane on Monday for a hospital apptmnt so we forego the five hour bus ride and travelled in comfort and good company to Brisbane where we dropped at Melissa's door.
As Mel wasn't in, we found a couple of op shops to browse. Mel made us very welcome and we have spent a relaxing morning with her. She will then take us to collect our hire car.
I have spoken to Linda Ward this morning and we will meet up with her this evening after a leisurely day on the coast - and prob. an op shop or two.
Hope you are all well and happy. Take care.
Love and hugs
Kate and Moo xxxxx

Welsh Greetings

Hi All
Just over 24 hours and I'll be leaving the house to head over to Australia. (About 34hours of travel to get there). Today I need to pack!
Saw a great band last night in our local arts centre - The Bad Shepherds. They do punk classics in a folk style. Fantastic! have bought their CD so will bring it for you to have a listen to.
Not a great deal of news really. Too excited to think what has been happening.
See you soon xxxxxx

greetings not from the south coast

Hi all,
Having another long weekend, this time up with mum.Doing the big spring clean, or whatever you call it this time of year, before Moo arrives.
Havent heard from the boys what they are thinking about the invites for the party. Annie says the elephant and Moo says the masters games-come on guys!!
Im now wondering if I can find a photo of every year of his life and scan them and put them on a disc/dvd or whatever. Probably way too complicated for a technophob like me, I couldnt even get the slides the right way up in the carousel last year. Mart saved me from a big freak out with that one.
Well really thats it for me. Have a great weekend
Love Zak
