A fine time at Ipswich

Post by Dave Smith » Fri Apr 22, 2011 6:59 pm

G/Day Everyone
Elaine and I spent most of yesterday and last night at Maureen’s place, It’s a lovely old Queenslander (the house that is) and we met some of her family in the morning, then after lunch Leonie came over and we spent the rest of the day chatting with a bit of poetry thrown in, It’s great to met people that you talk to on line and get a better idea where they are coming from.

Thanks Maureen for your great hospitality and making us so welcome.

Dave and Elaine.

Maureen is the one who provides the great hospitality. I'm just along for the ride, and what a ride it was. Lovely to meet you and Elaine Dave, and I still have fond memories of meeting up with you too Irene. Would love to do it all again one day.

The lovely thing about being a member of this group is the wonderful people that are in it. Always so ready and willing to share and terrific company when you get to meet with them. I was privileged last year to have Irene come stay and this weekend Dave and Elaine staying and Leonie visiting. My 87 year old Mum is here with me at the moment and she so enjoyed herself listening to Dave and chatting with the girls.

Dave and Elaine won over Mahalia and that is the only recommendation anybody needs at my place. It was a great privilege to be able to share some time with them and show them some old fashioned hospitality. It was my very great pleasure and Dave your and your long suffering wife :lol: the lovely Elaine are welcome guests here whenever they get over this way as of course is Irene.

Happy travelling and go safely.

Cheers

Maureen

I'm putting out some posters next week Dave but even if it is just us we will have a good time I'm sure. John Wilson my singer mate does a very good Chad Morgan impersonation and some shiela called Kym is coming as well.
