David & Pennie, Thanks for the wedding cake and the postcards.  The cake was beaut.  We played our basketball finals last Tuesday at Turner Oval, we won 16-15, but on the Friday we played Pymble (who were up here for the exchange visits) and beat them 19-0.  Andrew has a new job working for Mobil giving out free lollies, dog biscuits, maps, maps and oil.  Love Dood.
