Terry has tentatively booked us for our Christmas Lunch at the Black and White on Island Point Road for 12.30pm on the 2nd Dec which is a Thursday.
Jo was back with us she is still not too well but it was lovely to see her again.
Helene complete with arm in plaster joined us today.
Illness is no excuse not to come but if you have a doctors note we accept it.

Brags of the Day
Mandy had an epiphany and is eight chapters into her new novel. Really enjoying writing this much more than a romance.

David did a poem about Terry and his birthday it was so funny and we all enjoyed it.

Terry went to Canberra and saw the De Vinci exhibition and he says it was absolutely fantastic and well worth seeing. It was in the Commonwealth Park in a marque.

Jo has not got a brag except she was here. She has information on some competition for when you fail and what they sent her. A lot of info about the area the competition was held in. She didn't think the comments by the judges were relevant to her story so was under the impression they had not read the story.

Cath brought a book of poems from Adam Lindsey Gorden. The book was over a hundred years old. She also had several old books belonging to her father all very interesting.

Helene told us about the Ebook that she got for her birthday it is so small and really good we all want one they are so good.

Wendy knows how to download cds and puts them on to I pods. OOH you are clever Wendy…
