Hi Katie, we're sure you're having the most amazing time, can't wait to hear all your Kokoda Trek stories when we're walking around the oval in the dark (well, knowing you, you'll arrive just as we're leaving!). All fine with the dogs (except Bess is now limping so that's not good). hugs and good wishes from all your dog walking friends at Drummoyne Oval, Nuala.
Dear Briany, well after much frustration and the help of Bob Simms I have now managed to get a message to you albeit a bit later than intended. Noticed Brian the Younger got several from his beloved and family and even the Paraggios as well. Hope the knee is holding up and some of your tension has gone now that you are actually trekking and not pretending to trek. Had Gourmet tonight and all went well, but not hungry after a day at the Black and White Luncheon with Cecile. A few of the Gourmet crowd will be watching your progress as they asked for the email address. I guess you know that Parra won 44-6 on the weekend against the Tigers, and the talk is why was Tony Williams allowed to go to Manly. Lukey B. was in doubt because of the flu but he played and had a good game. Ros and Ross went to Cairns today and she text me to tell you to have a safe trip and see you when you get home. Matt rang and said he couldn't get through but tipped him off so he'll probably email. Saw Jenn, Luke and Zac this morning before I left and they said to say hello too. WEll of to bed now so keep safe and miss you, especially since an earring went down the u-bend and can't unscrew it. Say hello to the boys. Love Sue xxx
