ABPA - Australian Bush Poets Association

don't forget AKA Mannie, Mannie

G'day Bob.

Since I already know you and I know you are very experienced in bush poetry I won't explain anything . Hope to see some contributions from you on our little cyber chatterbox.

Stock up on your Berocca Sandy....& welcome. (My brother's name is Robert. My Father's name was Robert. And I didn't name my son Robert cos the blighters are going viral.)

I've known Bob for a few years now, so I welcome him to the Forum.
Also a big welcome to Lois, she is a good yarn spinner.
I happen to have a photograph of Lois - in the nuddy - naked - unclothed - in a kerosene tin.

You might remember that in 2011 I asked for copies of members photos as babies to be used in the magazine and in a competition. Not too many responded, so I would like to ask again that you send me your baby pics up until 3 or 4 years of age.
Please don't go and spoil this idea by self posting on the forum. Please post to he editor@abpa.org.au

For some strance reason when emailing me the sender quite often receives a message saying that I am not available. I can assure you that the emails are coming through at this end, and I'll try to respond to each message to acknowledge its receipt.
The first of the poet babies will appear in the February March issue of the magazine.
Happy new year all.

thanks neville for the kind words. sometimes, like now, i'm a bit stuck for words which wouldn't surprise anybody who knows me. it's only when i get a mike in my hand that you can't shut me up. just one of life's little paradoxes. i'll submit a poem when i work out how to do it.
