It's arrived! The last day in Aussie-can't believe it-We feel so settled (Sheila's having a fit). Had a beautiful relaxing stroll along the almost empty beach on Bribie Island. As usual, wildlife everywhere-spotted a commotion in the water and were told by fisherman dolphins had been seen earlier or it might be a small shark or just a tuna feeding on the small fish. Visited Christine, Paul, Helen and girls to say our fairwells; loved the views from Christine's house - the setting is amazing, not to mention the swimming pool-thinking of having one in Cheddleton. Went out for our last meal-Tempenyaki!! Japanese cook prepares your food in front of you-surrounded by 12

people. The climax comes with wearing a bib and having raw eggs and cups of rice thrown at you. Well we are in Aussie!! Visited Steven for farewell and pics. Now the hat!! Started as Andrew and Janet's joke buy from the supermarket in Hobart-has been on David's head ever since, but we thought it needed to be returned-perhaps it will turn up on the beach near your new house Andrew!!
