Brother Brian & his wife Tresha’s Visit to Oz
11.40 am and I,m looking resplendent in my sunnies and Akubra hat as they get of their aircraft from Brisbane (starting off in Manchester UK) looking very windswept ( well it was windy) Hugs and a bacon balmcake made them feel very welcome (which they are) after arriving back at our home. The day ended very well with us having a few beers in the Boat Club and getting them lifetime honary memberships (so they can use the FREE bus transport provided by the club!) followed by more drinks at the RSL Club .Needless to say we were barred originally from the Boat Club because Brian was wearing a vest !! Longs chats at home were the order of the day and off to bed.Thursday involved giving them a tour of our wonderful hometown followed by a visit to our local Radio Station where I host a show from 3pm to 6pm and followed again by a Dinner and drinks with friends at the RSL Club ( I won the meat raffle!) and I ended up drinkin TWO bottles of wine!! Friday was pretty laid back with a walk along Point Vernon Beach and to view the magnificent Mangroves that are plentiful and growing from an old reef (the very beggining of the Great Barrier Reef starts at this very place) I abstained from alcohol and went to bed around midnight.Saturday was spent beach walking and the girls did some house shopping and we all went for a walk on our fantastic pier (I managed half way !) We have booked tickets to see a Gene Pitney Tribute show at the Boat Club this evening with some friends..more about that on the next Blog
