It is really great (nearly said 'Fabulous' then) that some of you 'Absent Friends' joined us in the toast and posted it on the thread.

That just shows everyone what a great, friendly and fun group we all are, with the sense of comaraderie, whereever we might be residing at the time.

As well as saying goodbye and the hugs and kisses, we had two presentations, one to our neighbourhood cleanup champion, Mike, who was awarded the 'Order of the Can' for his selfless devotion to the cleanliness of the neighbourhood when he is walking Beau.

Lady Wendy was supposed to read out the citation to Mike, but didn't bring her reading glasses and could'nt see a thing and when asked why she hadn't brought them replied "I can see the Wine Glass well enough to see when it needs refilling"

The Lady Mayoress stepped in and read the citation wonderfully.

The second one was to Hotrodgirl, who was awarded a security certificate to present to her new friend Mick, who saw first hand the craziness of this new neighbourhood.

We are trully in awe of this wonderful place, you will all be missed and we will be back as soon as we can

Ditto on that--and it was nice to see everyone again and be made to feel so welcome and at home. Safe travels next week and come back "home" real soon as we'll miss you both!
