The Grey Nomads - General

eureka · eureka

I ordered a Grey Nomad sticker and hat, they arrived today. The hat is to big for me (or I've got a pin head) sits way down over my ears, bugger !!! So does anyone want a new free hat with blue print, either pick up or just pay for postage. Helen

Strong recommendation.. Don't go past Murwillumbah without visiting the Tweed River Art Gallery. Wonderful collection includes the stunning relocated Margaret Olley studio, excellent coffee shop and Tweed Valley views to die for! Fried Rice
