I bought her a voucher for an opera house tour for Christmas, so could suggest that Tuesday would be a good day for that. Otherwise, might have to send her off for a bonding day with her son while I do some cleaning, which will take til about 10am giving me enough time to get to Collaroy by 11! (although saying that, if I suggest the latter she'll probably send me out for the day so that she can do the cleaning!).

I have both my In-laws here, only arrived yesterday and am already finding it hard, off on 'holiday' with them tomorrow, which will be even harder! So no FTC for me this week, BUT if you are running an In-laws meet next week, count me in!!!

Mine'll be gone by next week!!! But I'll happily have another meet anyway. Am planning on driving to Adelaide Thurs 15th, so any day before that'll be good.
Where are you off to on holiday Ron? Have a good time.x

Port Macquarie, it is only from today until Friday. Then Ian goes back to work and I have In-Laws for another week. Even without the In Laws it would be good to meet up with people because I have not seen anyone in ages.

I`ve only just heard of this meet as I was reading Hoolas Facebook so no time to get organised.Our last UK visitors are still here and leave Wed 7th(another airport run........) and we have evening activities planned.I would feel a bit mean leaving them alone while they pack!So I may not turn up tomoorrow but would love another meet next week.
Happy New Year to all the FTC gang. Thanks for organising Bindy.

A quick bump for anyone who wants to join us on the coast today. Bring on those cooling sea breezes!

We are meeting on the beach at Collaroy in front of the play area from 11.00am. From around midday we will have moved into the shade closer to the park for a picnic.

See you all there. . . .

No worries- we went round the corner to Long Reef as DD wanted to swim, but went home at 1:30 as we had got a bit hot. Should have worn my sparkly scarf- always gets me noticed! Will call when I have a min- busy with DD's birthday preparations and changing medicare licences etc now we are PR. Oh yes, and trying to find a house to buy!
