Jif in Australia

[Geoff Winnington-Ball (RIP)]

Just wanted to say that after a long day, I'm in Lithgow with Tony and Jo, well-fed and tired and a bit sore with the onset of the autumn weather, but very content.

Sad to say good-bye to the Hedges clan but supremely happy and grateful to have spent time with them; their hospitality can never be adequately repaid (and Em, that includes you!). You lot, including John and Fiona, are truly, as Fiona so quaintly put it in the inscription in my Kokoda book, "my Yass family". That means more to me than I can adequately express. Thank you all for a magnificent interlude in my travels - certainly an educational one at-that.
