Thank you all for such a warm welcome.
Really is good to be back among you. it is almost 4pm here now and I expect it is midnight and you are all fast asleep. I know I probably would be. Can't cut the mustard any more. At least I try to sleep anyway if I am not you know where. 
I just love all the smiley thingys. So many of them to choose from.
Shirley & Polly the photo was taken at our VIEW Club luncheon in July when our daughter Judy was out from New Zealand. She and my sister Pat were in it too but I had to cut them out to make it small enough to fit. Judy sang for us at the luncheon and it was wonderful to hear her beautiful voice again. I miss so much going to all the performances she was involved in. She currently has the role of the Fairy Queen in a production of Iolanthe in Dunedin and I would have loved to go over for it but was not able. Ah well, next time.
Sally The family are good. Two grandchildren are coming to stay for a few days tomorrow. We had two family get togethers while Judy and kids were here, have some great photos. One of all the kidlets together and one of whole family I especially love. I should send them to you for our album. Not quite sure about sizing and such though.
Love to all
