G/day Irene,
Not sure how many I have posted but less than you I'd reckon.

I Just recently came back from up north via the Indian Ocean Coastal Hwy, it's the first time I have been that way.
I spent the night at Leeman and had some breakfast at Jurien Bay, what a lovely town you have there with lots of trees etc. I had my battered old prospecting caravan and it definitely lowered the standard of the town so I had quick look around and then quickly snuck away. I must bring Val up for a few day (with the new van of course - I checked out the caravan park).

Regards terry

What??? You were in town and didn't stop by??? We don't mind battered old caravans here!
Did you check out our great beach front area - down near the jetty? The shire in their infinite wisdom, have just approved a big fancy development just back off the beach, which will close off close vehicle access to the main beach and jetty, and have an 8 storey development - looking to go 10 storeys!! Will change the feel of the place forever! I think they have visions of us being another Gold Coast!! Heaven help us!! Might have to move a little further out, methinks!!

Good to see you back.
Are you going to be around if we have the poets breakfast in Cervantes again at the end of October? I think Dave is a little interested. I haven't had a chance to get to any meetings this year, so am waiting to hear what they are doing.

Catchya - Hi to Val

Hi Irene,
I didn't have your number or I would have given you a call and offered to buy you a coffee or something, mind you it was a bit early.

Yes I had a look at the jetty and wondered what all the activity that was going on was about, being a fisherman the jetty was the first place I looked for, I also noticed a coffee sort of place down there as well.

As I said the town had a nice feel about it, and when I stopped at the service station in town to get something to eat I noticed that friendly manner you find in country towns.

Yes I hope to make Cervantes again but might be tempted to stay at Jurien this year, as I said we have a new (well newer caravan) now so wont need to stay at motels. We might stay a few days and have a look about.

I have only been to one or two Musters earlier in the year, don't know what's going to happen without Brian & Dot, it's so hard to replace people like them. Irene If there is anything I can do to help out regarding Cervantes you only have to ask.

Cheers Terry
