Thanks, Terry and Shelley. I couldn't get to Binalong for the festival, but from all reports it was a terrific weekend, so three cheers for Robyn and all those who helped to make it such a success. Organising an event like this is a massive task, with so much work being done behind the scenes.

And congratulations to the other denizens of this site who are on the list!

Cheers
David

Congratulations David and other winners. It's good to see to see Milton's pen still has ink in it and nice to see Will Moody's name cropping up.

Heather :)

Many thanks Heather, Marty and Catherine. Writing poetry is a bit like lion-taming. Sometimes the beast will jump through hoops, but at others it will try to eat you alive.

Cheers
David ;)
