G'day Glenny,
The poem will go into the magazine for the next issue and will be in the poetry section of the home site as soon as Terry sends it through. From there it can be read by the whole ABPA membership even if they aren't forum followers like us.

Thanks Val. Glenny, Brenda & Wazza.
I guess all of us live in hope for something like this, but never really expect it to happen.
Cheers Terry

Re what I said above --

As Terry asked, and I agree, Winton really should have the 'joy' of first publication. When we hear back from them we'll let you know but until then we will all have to be patient.
