Photo a Day Challenge - 9.6.2024 - I Read This.

I put this book together 16 years ago, there are 81 Letters in here and recently both David and I have been re reading.... what fun that is.

I'm very proud that a copy is in our State Library!

Photo a Day Challenge - 7.1.2016 - Reading.

Given to Tomos for Christmas but too heavy to take back to Macao this trip... I'm really enjoying reading it though.

This statue is the one at Fromelles where the body of my second cousin Raymond Bishop was found just a few years ago.

Happy Happy Happy Dance... my Birthday Book has just arrived from Apple!

Wow! Double Wow! Gosh they do a brilliant job.

I set it up of course, in iPhoto which took me forever because I kept adding page after page photo after photo.

The best thing I did was to ask those coming to my party to please not bring presents but could they take photos and send them to me instead.

I received over 600 photos which I managed to cut down to 320 to put in this 96 page book.

And the result is spectacular! I just love it :-) Happy Friday everybody!

They just arrived! The books about our 24 Family Ancestors and two Family Friends who have represented Australia in Wars, some in two wars.

One week to the day, very good service eh! Just in time for ANZAC Day.

Only found a couple of lower case i's... so far so good.

I've DONE it... at last... phew!

After months of searching, months of scanning, months of typing, correcting, phone calls, conversations and David's very important proof reading... all good, interesting and very informative... I've sent my book to be published!

24 Ancestors and a couple of friends who have represented Australia in three Wars overseas and at Home... Yay! Yay! I've finished!

And... Hip Hip HURRAY! How can I bear to wait for the delivery now!

Back to knitting Poppies methinks :-)
