well we flew to perth last friday for the perth blues n roots festival, gees we had a good time
it is a long flight, but worth every bit of it, My niece lives in Attadale so we were not far from fremantle and the festival, My sister elaine flew over from NZ
and my brother and his wife Joanne and there daughter amanda also flew from sydney so we
all got together, there were a lot of yarns spun about old times,and gees we were little buggers
in our teenage years, but we all survived and we had some massive histerical fits of laughter
Graeme had a fantastic time and was so happy that we could take the time out to do such a thing
in the past we both would of never been able to afford to do such a thing.
I can say i will treasure this as one of my most fondest memories,Posting some pics now, i will say i
was on the moon in some of them ,the smokers area at the festival was rather interesting lol.
Santana were one of my favourite bands, Chris issak was incredible and so cute too, i think i had to
roll my tongue back in several times ,Robert plant from the band led zepplin was also there and many
other bands russell morris, too many to mention, the best thing is we had such a great time .
It was very hard to come back to relality after such a great weekend.by the way doesnt my sister look
fabulous for 59 years old

they were handing them out at a certain tent and they were great recycle cardboard so all good they got pretty trashed though one of them broke on my brother and he went backwards but they did some hard work ,we pretty much were the party animals by the end of the night
my sister has always been on the north island i went over when i was fifteen she lived in silverdale near orewa ,she married a guy vance wilburn his parents were head mistress and head master of the silverdale school, there was nothing there when i lived there , we lived in a tiny blue house across the road from the shop, there was a gorgeous church and cemetery at the end of the road.
then i lived in Nunguru up near whangharei and tutakaka,i lived in some holiday places they were A framed and you could stay in them for holidays,i cleaned them for free accommodation in one of them,was a great deal bedroom up in the attic part of the home.
Last time i went over was just for a couple of weeks, my sister now lives in Redbeach has a lovely home near the water, so havent been over since she met her new partner and bought the house they are in , he has a kitchen making business ,and my sister works at the planet fun , some sort of toy store warehouse.
