Nigel from England wrote: Hi there David & Margee (correct spelling?), just to say how much I enjoyed the day with you and was very impressed that you looked after me on my own, it was much appreciated. I have attached a couple of pictures, of course you may have hundreds but make use of them if you wish..... I returned to Sydney after being on the Gold Coast for a few days & then after a further couple of days flew back to Oxford, UK. Its 8.0DegC here today, in England. My bees seem to be surviving the cold, so all well there. It feels really really cold. How is the 'new diet' going? Trust that you have not had to many embarrassing incidents driving around the island in the 4X4? keep up the good work. Take Care and thanks again ......
