First meeting for 2010

As Maz had a birthday coming up and Easter being such a hard time to get us all together, we decided to celebreate earlier. How exciting it just spreads the good times further. Maude organised a Mystery Birthday tour for Maz. We all met at Maudes and in convey set off to "The Black Queen" one of Lightning Ridge's famous attractions. Robynne's car died just over an intersection, lovely that every person that passed stopped to offer help ,but hubby was on his way , it seems while going over a bump the security alarm must have been bumped , the push of a button and hey presto on our way again. What a wonderful hour and a half we spent listening and participating in the 3 act play owner Gale Collins enacted for us. We all felt the highlight was the Amazing Lamp show, just breath taking , this attraction is a must for all, not just visitors but locals as well.

Onto Maudes for our Dinner . Maude had drawn a map for hubby to show how she wanted the table set and he did not let her down, all the crystal and white dinner set just right apsolutely breath taking. A wonderful evening filled with friends, birthday wishes, presents, wine, delicious food and laughter, what more could we ask for. Lovely memories for all.

Saturday 27th June 2009, we met at Lizzies home for our friendship group. It was just wonderful to have our two intrepid travellers back with us. Lizzie from visiting family in New Zealand and Jo from her amazing trek on the Camino trail through Spain. It was wonderful to hear the stories. Maude and Robynne added to these with their trip to the quilt show in Sydney.

Jo was presented with flowers and a "Congratulations" card to celebrate her return and the completion of her amazing personal journey

Table laden with the usual goodies and plenty for show and tell. Lizzies amazing crotched patchwork quilt a work of art, her work is so fine and precise, photo attached.

Next meeting to be held at Maudes "Christmas in July"
