G’day and Kia ora, everyone! We are looking forward to seeing all of you at the party and potluck this Sunday, December 8, starting at 4:00 pm. Santa will be joining us at the Scandinavian Cultural Centre, 764 Erin, and little kids and big kids will mingle and celebrate the season. Remember it’s a potluck, so please bring mains, salads and veggie dishes, as well as a few desserts.
If you are looking for the perfect opportunity to connect with your mates, then why not join us at the DUCW’s AGM, 7:00 pm, Scandinavian Cultural Centre, 764 Erin. Stand for a position on the executive, bring a suggestion for club events, and catch up with friends and new members. The bar will be open, and yes, there will be snacks!
“They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old. Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them.”
Thanks to Brian for sending this link that shows a different view of the bushfires currently afflicting the east coast of Australia.
In January 2011, brothers Greg and Barrie Bryan became the first people to complete a full re-enactment of Henry Lawson’s 1893 trek from Bourke, NSW to Hungerford on the QLD border and back. In total, they walked more than 450km in 15 days. And last year, they set a new challenge – to retrace the walk Henry Lawson completed with his great mate, Jim Gordon, to the historic Toorale Woolshed.
