Dino Forsythe and Doug Walker

Here are some more photos taken at the Ides of March gathering. Thanks Marion. The last photo of Dino and Dougie was taken at an earlier function. Fay and I caught up with Dino at Wallsend Bowling club (Newcasle) for a meal. He lives at Marks Point which is a beautiful spot just out of Newcastle (near Belmont).

CUDMIRRAH / BERRARA

22 Kirpson Street BERRARA

We will enjoy some beachwalking.

...even at low tide.

While Keasts' mansion - Retreat is not far away!

Our gathering approaches - Friday 7 March for most starters.

Barry & Beth Robertson, Van Davy, Graeme & Suzi O'Brien, Bernie & Janice Fitzpatrick, Lynn Ludwig, Doug & Lucy Walker, Grahame & Fay Keast.

We will be joined by Marion Giddy and Sue & Gerd King on Saturday 8 March. Elaine Saunders might join us for the day.

Eating arrangements:
# bring your own brekky - people in vans usually have this anyway
# Friday night - barbie at 22 Kirpson St Berrara (you'll be able to buy some meat at Sussex if you haven't got any in your van) - that's the house pictured above
# Sat lunch - blokes will probably make team sandwiches to order at 22 Kirpson St
# Sat night dinner - at Bowling Club where Robbo is a Director - complete with courtesy bus
# Sun lunch - like Sat lunch (unless we come up with a better offer)
Sun dinner - RSL Club in Sussex - courtesy bus.
Don't forget to bring your swimmers/togs/bathers, sunscreen and towels.

Those staying at the house will also need to bring sheets, towels, pillowslips.

It'd be great if you could let Grahame know your estimated time of arrival.

GATHERING at CUDMIRRAH-BERRARA

This is our Retreat! It's situated at Surfside Caravan Park at Cudmirrah. It's a very comfortable spot 5 km south of Sussex Inlet. This is where we catch up with Jim & Jan Smart, Gra & Dale Roberts and Barry & Beth Robertson each summer.

We're really looking forward to the WWTC gang heading this way on 7-9 March. There'll be about 21 of us there to foster a fair bit of collambience.

I'll be in touch with all people who've let me know they're coming to Cudmirrah-Berrara over the next week or so. That includes: Marion Giddy, Rob & Julianne Hughes, Merv & Helen Smith, Doug & Lucy Walker, Lynn Ludwig, Van Davy, Barry & Beth Robertson, Bob & Colleen Cureton, Graeme & Suzi O'Brien, Bernie & Janice Fitzpatrick, Keasts and Gerd & Sue King.

Received a card from Jock and Gail.... I think they're in Europe as we speak. They have a daughter working in England.

Found another great spot yesterday for a future gathering. The old rectory at Kangaroo Valley. The old stone cottage has FIVE bedrooms! Can cater for about 20. Anyone interested in, say 3 days midweek one of these days?

B is for BERRARA

This is a great part of the world. It can be yours for less than $500 for the weekend! In fact less than $400. Way way less! Even Jan and Jim Smart can afford this holiday even though it's a fair way for them to travel.

We're proposing a WWTC6364 gathering at Berrara (just 6 km south of Sussex Inlet. That's south of Nowra/Bomaderry).

Dates: 14-17 March 2008 - just a year away.

If you don't get an email with more information, send me an email and I'll send you the info. keasty446@gmail.com or 0448 626 646

Already there are a dozen or so strongly interested.
