She laid on a super barbecue in her garden,and invited our Royals friends to it Pete Why, Tony Boon Ken Brown, And Tom Caroline drove all the way from Sydney to be there all with ther partners with a couple of friends of Jennys it was a superbe lunch / evening event ( and Yes Bri i did get half Pi**sed ) but did,nt chance the Jamisons or it would been singing Cowboy Songs all night !!!) Bri i'll let you into a little secret after that night the amber nectar as was flowing qiute regular. but all good things come to an end to quickly, and it was back home to the cold!! thank you to all the old Royals who yet again made my stay an unforgettably one,And more importantly to you Jenny for being the unselfish,helpful,down to earth, person you are for putting up with the Old Pom !!!
