Default Ladies and Gentlemen...The Possoms have just left the building

They departed yesterday after their validation trip and should be back home about 9pm, UK time.

They stayed with us for a couple of days after some travelling. It was lovely to meet you Kay & Colin, and we'll catch up again soon.

How bizzare was that, seeing off friends at the airport and not boarding the plane yourself! Strange.

We saw a family crying their eyes out after saying goodbye to some loved ones, had to look away as it was getting a bit smokey in there.

Hope we managed to give them a good night out on Saturday!
It was great to meet them - hope they realise I am already plotting a trip to Tassie so they may have to see us again.
And how honoured were they - The Bloke (Queenslander through and through) stayed in the pub all evening and missed his 8pm bedtime!

They certainly had a long chat about the place didn't they - glad she managed to join us eventually, thought she might be lost in Cannon Hill for eternity

Well lets hope you get your house shifted soon then you can get back there.

Are you still going to Tasmania or are you looking at Brisbane now?.
