News from the capital

So I suppose it's about my turn to put something on the blog. Not a lot has been happening. Work, gym, work etc. This time in 3 weeks will be in Wales with Moo!! And I have so much to do before then! I need to set work for my students when I am away, and mark their work so I don't get too far behind. I will get excited about the trip once I have set all my work at school. At least they are going to hire a relief teacher when I am away this time- and one who is a musician! Last time I was away half my classes were cancelled- my students were not happy! Steve and I have booked for and paid for everything we needed to do for our trip. When I return I will be doing my Cert IV in Career Development- a qualification I need to do my job at the moment. I also need to get a VET course in music up and running as well as the musical. Never a dull moment- Dad don't you miss all of this Anyway, that is about all, as I said don't have  a real lot to say, just thought I would post something, as everybody else is.

Welsh Greetings

Hi All,
In three weeks today we will have Annie under our roof. It is coming round very quickly and we are greatly looking forward to it.
Not much happening here. We are having the coldest start to Spring in 50 years. A real shock to the system after the warmth I left behind in Aus. It is, however, dry so can't complain too much. Unfortunately, we don't have a new log burner yet so the central heating is working overtime.
Jules and I are both well although we both had a bit of a bug last week (Jules had it first and felt the need to share it with me). We are recovered now and back at the gym trying to get fitter and lose some weight.
Saw Cynthia on the weekend. She was asking after everyone.
Have had a few days of work since my return. Can pay the bills this month!
Really not much happening but wanted to say "Hi".
Have done that now so, Bye for now.
Love to All. xxxxx

Greetings from Home

Hi All
A special "Hi" to Marty our BIITHDAY BOY ... our "shave your hair" hero
Had a great couple of days with Ron and niece Cathy at Albury. Ron snarled an $800 trifecta on day 1 which gave him a bank for day 2 which wasn't as productive. I left a bit with the bookies day 1 but came out well on day 2 without sending the bookies home broke.
Katie - God bless her- spent the 4 days with Mum; left some scrumptious tuna pasta; plied Mum with banana smoothies; cleaned all the rooms; washed the curtains; trimmed the strlitzia and bouganvilia; took Mum and Joy for a haircut.
Jack and Fran called in today and Dianne Henry and daughter dropped by to consult Jack professionally and enjoy some of Fran's lemon slice.
Annie is getting all excited  about her "week with Moo", almost here. She spends the night before the flight with us.
Enjoy the Easter Break; and you "schoolies" the upcoming holidays. How I loved those school holidays! Now it's ONE LONG HOLIDAY made more enjoyable by contact and visits from my five treasures
Love to All
Dad/Tjilpi/Old Man/Kev.

What!! No Photos!!

greetings from the south coast

Hi all,
I saw Rodrigeuz last night at the Enmore theatre. What a beautiful gentle 70year old legend. I was lucky to be able to speak to him at the end of the concert, and even get a tshirt signed. I really wanted to kiss him, but had to make do with a firm but gentle hold of his hand. I know Luke had tickets for one of his concerts, but I didnt see him there last night. This touring thing for these old legends round at the moment must be exhausting.
Just discussing with Hasi this morning if we should see Iggy Pop and the stooges in the next few weeks at the Hordern. Do any of these people ever tour in the top end?
Anyone want tosee Joan Armatrading on Sunday night? Maybe I should just take Tom up on his offer, of a ride up to the blues fest, and see the lot of them at one venue. The old hippie aunty on a road trip with the young lads-yahoo!!
Hope you all have a great day
Cheers Zak
