"Brown Jug Polka" - one of our favourites and lots of fun - of course!
...... back the other way!
Roger speaking to Lisa about her paintings
Jamie singing some of his ballads
Needless to say we had a wonderful Australian Day celebration with approx 60 adults and 20 children attending the day Roger and I organized. Yes, it was lots of work, but once we have recovered we will say it was worth it. We almost managed to make ends meet, which was our major concern as we had to hire the hall, projector, buy the sausages, rolls and of course make the afternoon tea.
There were 20 Aussies present, many we hadn't met before and they all enjoyed getting together for a celebration.
We started with a sausage and onion, lamington or carrot cake. Then we put on a bit of Aussie Rules Footy for people to watch followed by Bush Dancing, afternoon tea, Jamie singing and then more Bush Dancing. There was a table for the children to draw and make kangaroo masks (very popular) and everything seemed to go very smoothly.
Now Roger and I are recovering!
