Tomos arrived yesterday morning YAY!

I picked him up from the Station a place I've been picking up family for many a year.
One of the many places Tom stopped at on his trip to Aus was the Phillipines where he received a Peace prize, well done Tomo.
Look what was in his luggage, which had to be confiscated when it arrived at 333!  Thanks Tomo 😘
Lunchtime it was up to Hornsby for Yum Cha with Nerys, Tim and Charlie.

It's 50 years since our beautiful Opera House was opened.

Today's 50th Anniversary of the opening of the Sydney Opera House brings back memories of our Tomos who in 1988, aged 13, sang in four different Operas! Wow how wonderful was that, here he is in 'Carmen', can you find him??

Just Beautiful!  Below is what was on this point before the Opera House was built, a Tram Depot!

Farewell to Fantales :-)

Now here's a story about a young lad who knew what he wanted to do from a very young child...  David and I had gone away to celebrate something one weekend and the children were staying over at Pippy's for the night.

The next week I got a phone call from a chap who wanted to know when I would be paying Tom's fees for the Ku-ring-gai Choir he'd joined, this took me by surprise so I asked Tomos about it, he replied that yes he did want to join this choir...  "I've always wanted to be on a Fantale wrapper' was his reply, this was news to us but I did join him up and he just loved it, he moved on from there to many other teachers who kept telling us he needed more tuition.

(The Choir teachers had set themselves up at our local oval which was just behind Pippy's home.)

The boy who wanted to be on a Fantale Wrapper to the boy below who was a Medalist at St Andrews Cathedral.
To the boy who sang at many many events to the boy who became an understudy of the Phantom for a couple of years.
To the boy who is not only singing all over the place but volunteering to teach women who have had breast cancer... this boy certainly can sing.

 Unfortunately with Fantales leaving the market he won't be able to be on one of their wrappers! Oh well he's certainly enjoyed as we have ... his wonderful voice for many many a year.

Late last month and into this month we were lucky to have Tomos come from London for more than 3 weeks.

 Didn't take many photos which is so unlike me but all this Chemo stuff is wearing me down.



While we were enjoying lunch look who surprised us by just popping around the corner.
Yay!  James and his Mummies.
Three beautiful Grandson's Charlie, James and Jackson.

Yay! He's here...

He's Landed! 6:41AM.
Waiting for luggage.
Waiting in office for his arrival here.
Yay!  Our Tomos is here... 8:27 AM

Before Tom left London he asked if anyone would like something... I of course requested some Bournville Dark Chocolate... but I wasn't expecting this!  Wow!  Even I will take years to get through all this yummy treat!  Thanks Tomo!
