At the end of a busy week that included home renovation of finishing off installing double glass doors from the dining room to the deck (Barry) and cleaning up and making the the heavy curtains (me).
However, it has not been all work, as we attended an inspiring ukulele workshop last night in Bangalow with Ralph Shaw a Canadian. He has a blog and has been writing about his time in Australia.
Then tonight we are going to a St Patricks Eve workshop and music session at Kyogle, and it has been well publicised and I expect it will be well patronised.
Then we have a visitor over the weekend, and are taking her to a Senior Citizens lunch where our good friends The Messengers are entertaining. Then on Monday we have been booked to entertain at a Senior Citizen Week event at Kyogle.
So I will take this opportunity to wish a Happy St Patricks Day to all who are interested in Irish heritage!!!!
Just mentioning too, my friend Sharon from Canada is now posting "Global Express" news from friends from various corners of our global village on blogspot. If you have a few moments, you are welcome to browse and join us.
With love and blessings, Jan
