Finally....giving this another go!

Well it's been absolutely ages and such a pity that I did not keep up this blogging! So much to catch up on! But here is at least a start.
We have just come back from a quick holiday on the Gold Coast. Was great. Managed to catch up with Susie, Max, Naomi, Daniel, Carissa, Georgia and Gloria (wow...what a big family) and also with Terry and Jan (Dennis' brother). Unfortunately Jessica and Malcolm were unable to join us. And then on the way home we had a quick drink with Lisa at the Big Banana in Coffs Harbour.
Apart from that it was driving, resting and walking along the beach. Picked up a bit of a souvenir from Port Macquarie. Probably 60, fair dinkum, no exaggeration, mozzie bites. Or maybe they are sandfly bites. They all happened in 30 minutes whilst we were sitting outside eating fish and chips. And because I didn't feel them bite me I tend to think they are sandfly bites. But I am still scratching/itching!
Unfortuntely on the way home from Port Macquarie we got some bad news. Dennis' uncle Pat (or actually the cousin of his father) died suddenly on St. Patricks day. Not bad timing for an irish catholic called Patrick. So the day after we returned home we flew to Sydney to attend the funeral. Which went well as funerals go. Was good to catch up with some long lost relatives.
And that's as much as I have time for today!
