ABPA - Australian Bush Poets Association

But here is a condolence Message to Frank Daniel. Our esteemed Editor, of our by monthly rag.

Now Frank or Joe as he is often referred to is in strife but why is nothing said on the Forum by any of the hierarchy of the forum.

Frank is a foundation member of the ABPA and his name is on the honour role at the Longyard Hotel at Tamworth
He has been President for a number of years and Vice president for many more, and long serving Editor for a long time

The strife that I am referring to is not financial but health wise Frank has taken several falls as of late once tripping and falling
hitting his head on the brick wall of his house ,did no harm to the brick work but did not help his head as a result
I believe they had to place a stint in to allow the blood flow later he was knocked over by a reversing car and fell backwards
again hitting his head and damaging the stint and causing more problems after many trips to and from his local hospital and RPA
but now things are starting to improve.
This last episode has taken a lot out of him making his speech rather slow and furry.
So there you have it I will let you know from time to time how Frank is progressing GOOD LUCK FRANK

BILL WILLIAMS

Bill, that's really bad news about Frank. Thanks for letting us know.

To the home of a friend the way is never long
the welcome is always warm and the Billy always on.

Is that in recognition of the day Frank dumped a load of wheat at the steps of Parliament House ?

Get well mate

I think you are right Zondrae - anyway it is early June and I also think he is a Gemini Horse which would mean that it is a big one i.e. 70?
