Reclaiming Wellness

Guess what Guys! Graeme Sait is back on Island and is holding a *FREE* ~~ don't we just LOVE that word ~~ health talk on reclaiming and improving wellness in our lives! As Norfolk is a little down at the moment, isn't this just the best time to attend a seminar on wellness! We've got all the fresh greens that we need ~ yeah I know, maybe not fruit ~ but fresh meat, fresh fish, (and if you go down to the dam) REALLY fresh chickens. Trot along to Governor's Lodge on Thursday, 4 October, at 6.30 pm and listen to this international speaker, talk about health. 

An afternoon at Millie's

It was Simon's birthday and definately time for a party ~ or so Mrs Walden thought ~ which meant of course, that we're all invited up to Millie's for an afternoon of convivial friendship; fabulous food and much drink, much drink, much drink............

What a fabulous afternoon. Huge thanks Millie. I had such a fun time and only ate/drank 23 jellies. I didn't know at the time that they were toxic. Of course, I found out.

I'm sure there's another birthday in October. We really must do it again.

If for no other reason, then to eat the fabulous food.
