Good on yer. Pouring with rain and cold in POngolia at the moment when you are sitting there waxing your surfboard. `Christmas in Australia is basically bloody nice` Apropos of nothing, you are probably aware, in the hotbed of culture that is Oz that there is a long poem called John Gilpins Ride. It finishes with the line (roughly) Should there be such a ride again May I be there to see. I wish I had been in the States to see you. You could always `do` Europe and the UK of course. All the best Pat ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 03:44:36 AM PST US From: "Jack Lockamy" Subject: RE: Kolb-List: Great job John! I thoroughly enjoyed the 'journey' through your photos and captions. It's amazing to me more Americans don't have the same enthusiasm to see this great country as do many of our foreign friends. Good on ya Mate!

You're a lucky bloke to be able to fly home to summer. :-} If you go to an airshow and see the most beautiful Long EZ ever built say hello to Wayne Blackler for me. She's silver and sleek and you can't miss her on the flight line.
