Paynesville Vic.
A very wet ANZAC DAY in Paynesville this year with a very large crowd. I have been living here since 1974 and this is the first wet Anzac Day I can remember. I was chauffeured today in my White Scout Car by my son Geoff. This is the 31st time that my White Scout car has taken part in Paynesville and Bairnsdale Anzac Day Parades. I was very pleasantly surprised to see one of our highway patrol saluting the entire march. Today, the engraved granite plaques were unveiled on the Cenotaph after much investigations to ensure that all those who should be on the Cenotaph in remembrance, are there. Roger Ross attended as usual with his Jeep. Thanks Geoff and Roger. So on to Bairnsdale.
