Hi all,

?

I hope this finds you well in these strange times. Fortunately for me, and I hope it is the same with you, most of this is quite normal as I don’t go out that much anyway and the two things I would normally go out for during the week are still running.

?

Just heard from Col (Semmler) – he rang Chris Davis for his birthday only to find him in hospital – St Vincents in Melbourne. Chris had not been feeling well and collapsed – had the ambos been any later he may not have made it. Seems he had an issue with one of the valves in his heart and had to be opened up to fix it…all recovering now but still in hospital. Chris I am sure everyone joins with me to wish you a speedy recovery.

?

Speaking of Col – it seems that the small amount of pressure I have been putting on him for the last few years is finally paying off and he is writing up some memoirs of our time there – so looking forward to reading it. J

?

Had a couple of catch ups with Geoff Fox who many of you will know had been overseas and had made it back to Berrigan to go into isolation for a fortnight but in his caravan at his cousins place. From last account all was well with him and by now will be out of iso.

?

We would have had another get together by now of the RIverina group but this lockdown has put paid to that for the time being. When we know the travel restrictions have been lifted I will get to organise the next one. I think we agreed to meet in the metropolis of Ariah Park – which should make for an interesting day. Looking forward to when that does happen.

?

Will also post Chris’ news up on our FB page.

?

All the best for now
