My lovely Mum has just celebrated her 80th Birthday.
Now everyone who knows me had better sit down for this ....... Ern and I actually were able to celebrate it with her. OK, so what does that mean? I live in Melbourne and Mum lives in Wangaratta. I have not been to Wangaratta for over 3 years. We actually travelled to Wangaratta ..... yes ....... we really did !!! I put our lovely dog in a boarding kennel and Ern and I travelled to Wangaratta by train. Of course I was thinking that Ern wouldn't go ..... however, he was going, even if I had to drag him kicking and screaming.
When we got there he was out of his environment but at least he had his laptop and port !!!!
We 4 kids decided that Mum was going to have a party. 35 people enjoyed a very informal and lovely luncheon at the Vine Hotel. It was so relaxing. Everyone had the opportunity to say a few words and this proved very entertaining.
