we used to have to rely on the old coolgardie safe woe betide the one that let it run out of water and there was a bigger one in our meat house that had a tank on the roof and hession down the sides wet to keep cool as in summer it held a sheep or a quarter of beef once a month and dad kept his beer in a string bag hanging in the underground water tank and once a month we were aloud a bottle of soft drink if we behaved ourselves you know the bottle with the marble in it and I still have one you used a candle to go out to the lou and we always had a good crop of lemons as dad and I would often stop on the way out back

those were the good old days if you did not behave your selves you could not sit down for a week as the saying goes the old battler

G'day everyone,

In my excitement to hear that one of my poems had made the stage at Tamworth, I neglected to offer my congratulations to the ABPA members who took part.

Well done all those who took to the stage. Just having the nerves under control enough to get up is an achievement in itself.

Congratulations to all who made it to the finals in all categories.

And to all the winners, (members of the ABPA or not) a specal round of applause. To be chosen as the best of the best is praise indeed. To the place getters- don't be disheartened try again next year. You never know, you may have just that extra shine, that the judges on the day take a liking to.
