Melbourne

Dear Porky,

After turbulent flight to Perth we had a smooth sailing in an airbus. As we were running late with the first section of the trip we had to run to get our connection to Melbourne. Uncle Stewie picked us up and we were welcomed by a smiling Jo wine bottles in hand. THEY had a long night and of course lots of, you no what. The next there was a lovely breakfast followed by, you no what. In the evening friends of Uncle Stewie and Auntie Joanne came for a farewell dinner for Uncle Stewie combined with a tragic football game on the flat screen tv where the Saints got flattened. In keeping with a footy event the spread included party pies, sausage rolls and spicy chicken drumsticks, beer and more beer and wine of course. Sunday lunchtime Uncle Stewie left for Broome to start his strenuous trip of prospecting with his boyfriend. SHE went to have lunch with Friedel, Pia and Tom in North Melbourne and afterwards to Friedel's place to meet Hank Solo, the new addition to the household. Hank is a cute 9 months old Staffie Corgy cross and will become a playmate for Dolly, a miniature dachshound. Mike was so kind to drive HER back to Sunshine West where a delicious homemade pizza was waiting for her. It got late again, because Pia and Tom dropped in to have a little chat before continuing to Geelong. What a lovely host Jo is and a great conversation partner , never a dull moment. Thank you to both Sunshiners. Well Porky, tomorrow we will see each other again and I can't wait that you swing tour eight arms around me and guess what, we are bringing Jeronimo with us on the plane to Tassie. He will be staying with us for a few months till Pia comes back from the bear sanctuary in Romania. So long, yours truly

Petunia

Jeronimo

 

Good to be back with you Porky
