Isn't it cool that there are folk we went through WWTC with umpteen years ago that we now count as mates? As friends.One such mate is Graham Brown. He now lives in the beautiful area of Rutherglen, Vic. with his lovely (and long-suffering) wife Margaret.
Graham's first appointment was Talmalmo near Corryong. He spent quite a bit of time teaching at Corowa.
He has strong ties with his church and other Christian organisations and is... you guessed it... a keen cyclist. Never ask him in front of Margaret how many bikes he actually owns.
When Fay and I were there earlier this year, we put our Avan up in his front yard and went visiting the Morris Winery with the Browns and some of the local Rotary people. It was a beaut night.
Graham's had prostate problems, and been through an op (I'm pretty sure) and 37 radiation sessions. (I can't imagine what that would be like.) He won't know how effective the radiation has been till he finishes his course of Zolodex next year.
Graham also does quite a bit of canoeing or should that be kayaking? He reckons it'd been getting harder to extract himself from the kayak until he remembered reading an article decades ago about how to get out of a kayak. He reckons it was lucky he read that article back then and could recall it.
Graham loves travel and visiting family (Sydney and Wollongong trips coming up shortly).
The Browns are planning a trip to England and the continent during Aug-Sept-Oct this year. Do you recognise him from the photo? (Yeah he's with my wife Fay on the left of photo. Margaret and I on the right.)
