Time to update ... Its March 16th, 2003 Sunday Afternoon I am still working for Future School as a school liaison officer. I have just come back from a two week trip to Darwin, in the Northern Territory where I visited with many schools and ten schools agreed to share information about the program with their parent body Jane-Frances is well into another busy year. She is teaching the same group of students this year. She has just started her Masters in Educational Leadership. I'm still amazed by her energy, commitment and enthusiasm. We had a great holiday over Xmas at the Gold Coast and with my siblings and their families in Brisbane. My sister Kim and hubby, Russell organized the christening of their new son while we were there. The weather is still rather clammy as summer winds down. We've had some rain but not a great amount. The winds have not been very favourable for kite surfing, my latest passion. Air temperatures is still up around 30oC. (Check out the converter.) Kea and Pocket are slow but happy. They are getting fussy with food. We think it's just old age. I had my operation in January as I have a pterygium (sun damage growth) on my eye. While it was rather painful for quite a few days and remains unsightly (excuse the pun) to this day, at least its gone. I want to acknowledge a friend in Sydney, an old college buddy of Jane-Frances, who is fighting cancer. You know who you are. Our best wishes are with you. Hang in there Mark |
