Sue,
If you get to the National and Poets Breakfast, please come up and intoduce yourself to me. It is always nice to meet the people we 'talk' to on the computer.

If you do get to canberra you will see some top class performers. Jenny Markwell-Emery, the new NSW performance Champion, and recent winner of the Matilda award at MFSR comp is coming. Peter Mace and John Peel, who both have won the 'Golden Damper' which is a reciters award at Tamworth, are both on the list. David Campbell who is a multi-multi award winning writer is on Monday's programme. He is also doing a workshop on contempory poetry. There will be a host of others. Last year we had Greg North but I don't think Greg is coming this year, I know Stephen Whiteside is. We often have as many as 37 performers on the Saturday and Sunday mornings. So don't be late. Look out for the ABPA badge. It looks like the old 'penny' and most of the blokes wear theirs on their hat. I wear mine on my collar.

"G'day" mummsie. Blimey - that takes me back.

Plenty of previous good advice.

Wish you "good health" and keep 'em coming.
Jim.
