Down-under … Member Mal Sharpe reports on his holiday
Hi - we are in Northern
Australia and on a two
month walkabout (in a
posh RV). We’re
meeting lots of
different people - we
came across Manni
showing Aboriginal folk art, he also
showed us fire making, and his
spear throwing - very nice chap.
We did a spot of fishing,
listened to a bit of
didgeridoo, and
met some locals.
And I got a ‘new best
friend’.
On the way over we had
to stop for a spot of shopping in Hong Kong.
I hope to see you all at the next convention.
Mal and Debbie
