Welsh Greetings

Hi All,
Not a lot going on but thought I'd just check in.
We had an enjoyable few days away in New Quay. Weather held out for us mostly (there's my weather talk). Had a few op shop bargains.
Had a night out with the darts girls -dinner and chatting - very enjoyable. Doing OK this season. First half over so break for knockouts now.
Weather is getting colder and wetter (there it is again). Time to fly south for the winter.
Hope all is well.

Greetings not from the south coast

Hi all
We'll Annie and I are chilling out in the top end with Marty and Claire. Oops and Buddy Guy. Markets , swimming, sipping champagne in the pool, which is one of our favourite pastimes. This morning we went for a lovely walk in the Jingili Water Gardens. This arvo we are reading and helping Mart put up the rails on the verandah. We have done the easy small ones at the end, but have to get the longer, and heavier ones up next.
It is truely amazing how much work they have done here since we last visited, and how much the garden has grown. Lovely lush and private.
our niece should have arrived this morning. She should have arrived last night but her flight was delayed, so she missed her connecting flight in Singapore. I'm waiting to her form Hasi if she landed.
Ok back to work
Love to all, zak

GREETINGS FROM HOME

After much difficulty this page has opened up. How long it will last and whether it will publish will be determined shortly.
Pacemaker revamped; Darwin finally landed; heavy cold limiting.
Per favour of Marty's mate Dave, teacher and horse trainer, have booked for Scone Cup next year.
Disappointing AFL Grand Final, but enjoyable company.
Trip to Corroboree Lagoon: beautiful, colourful country, even after a long Dry; crocs, water birds, soaring kites, hawkes, sitting sea eagles...but no fish.
A motor failure gave Marty and Joe a chance to hone their paddling skills before a tow to the boat ramp.
A visit to Claire's work place topped off a great few days with Marty and Claire.
I took very few photos but what I did take won't come up on my "insert" key.
(20 minutes of frustrating chasing around trying to get pictures I give up)
Love to all. Kate and Annie will no doubt be able to get pictures on their blog.
I wonder will they get Marty to come back on board.
Dad, Old Man, Kev, Tjilpi .
