Once again, Paul and Claire et al came through with a brilliant party for their daughter, Dana’s, 18th birthday on their property just outside Kyogle. The photos below don’t really do the evening justice but we include them to give an idea of the festivities. Click on the photos for a better view…

The crowd at dinner in the marquee erected for the occasion…	More of the crowd	Some Wilsons and others
Glen, Uncle Bruce and Claire of the Sydney Wilsons	Claire – our hostess with the mostest	Us – just to prove we were there…
Aunty Judi	Dana – well, most of Dana. We’ll call it an art shot, shall we!	More partying…
Martin and Kelly	Paul – our host for the evening. And the speeches begin…	and the speeches continue…
Jess – never afraid of a theme party. Did I mention, it was a Christmas in July party?	as is tradition in these parts… Claire had composed a poem… and what a poem!	Dana feels more comfortable behind the video camera
the poem continues and the crowd hangs on every word…	…through funny bits…	…and funnier bits…
…and even funnier bits…	…and some embarassing bits – of course…	…the poem finishes…
…the cake comes out…	…the candles are blown out…	…and it’s time to respond.
…and then presents…	…and more presents.	Next day, it’s the usual suspects, hard at work.

Snout and Tara are Rob and Nadia’s Bull Mastifs. They are truly beautiful creatures with the loving and gentle nature typical of the giant breeds. Good images of dogs are difficult to get and if we get any, we will be sure to post them here. Meanwhile, here are some average ones to be going on with…
