15th July – Today I spent the day helping Peter and Betty setting up their church market. With the help of Tom and Samuel on a make-shift tractor Peter has built, we brought all the items that were sale up from the back sheds and into the church. Getting home around 4 ish, we all enjoyed a nice slice of cake and good old cuppa! I then received a nice phone call from my favorite three, which was was extra special; as it was Dads birthday!! It was lovely speaking to mum, dad and luke and having a nice big catch up! Especially when Dad told me 30 years ago that day, he was arriving in Sydney as a teenager himself!
16th July – Today, I, Peter and Betty set off around 7am to the church to do the finishing touches at the market and then I spent the day helping out with selling little items and in particular the bbq food with Peter. After a long day of selling little bits and bobs and some big things like a washing machine and a dining room table and chairs set; a grand total of $1350 was announced, which will be used towards the maintenance of church.
Tomorrow I plan to go to the local shops and then for the rest of the week I would like to do some exploring of this forest and hill filled suburb located 40 miles from Sydney, before I head into the city to do some disability coaching near the end of next week.
