One of the reasons Kristian and Kate came up from Melbourne, apart form seeing us, was to attend Dad’s 70+1 birthday party. We had planned to have it last year of course, but because of Covid, it got delayed a year. But boy was it worth the wait! Mum thought it would be fun to…

I am lucky enough to be in an AirBNB on the Sunshine Coast for two nights…

I had a couple more cards arrive in the mail during the week, some belated, yet still very much appreciated birthday wishes, and today I received what I can assume to be my final gifts.
