Club L ~ a night at The Rock

Last night ~ with thanks to Alma ~ I went to my first night at Club L. Drove to Alma's and checked out her beautiful home because she's received two lovely new hall runner, then out to Geoff's car to drive to New Cascade Road to pick up Shirley (mother-in-law), then on to The Rock restaurant for the evening. Thirty ladies turned up and Dr Cheryl Davenport addressed us on her role as a Western Australian politician and the role she'd played before coming to Norfolk Island to be the Government's Chief of Staff. A very interesting and well listened to, address.

 Fenella Evans, President of the  Norfolk Island branch of Club L welcoming the new and greeting the frequent.

 Dr Cheryl Davenport addressing us and talking about the different view that women give to issues brought to parliament

 Anne Howe and Gaye posing for a photo to send to our dear friend Jen, who, had she been on Norfolk Island, would definitely have been there with us.

Look at the camera Gaye! A fun night all in all.

A Partyload of Pinks

Nomes had another of her wonderfully bright ideas. Tracey's home and so the girls would have A PINK PARTY. Yea. First stop The Olive.  Where else! Lovely looking cocktails, deliciously yum and insidiously lethal ~ as some of us found out the next morning when, safe in our trunkle beds we tried to raise our little headies from our little pillows.
