3 Sisters

Three sisters, all over 50 now (just), seem to have more in common than when we were growing up in Brisbane all those years ago. It was a chance for us to share some fun together in Sydney with the two Rs & Pete this long weekend, some great talking opportunities, catching up with family news, a bit of shopping (11 hours of it Pete informs us), and some great dining and drinking too, especially on Saturday with long visits to Cabramatta and Balmain. Watching Daniel Craig channelling James Bond in Quantum of Solace at the Randwick Ritz was a fitting conclusion to our action packed, reunion weekend.

It was really exciting to hear the news that Brisbane Joel has won his first contract with Al Jezeera - 60 days in Beijing over the next 6 months, starting in December, a few days before Christmas. He is a very talented young man!

Our visit to J&J & Miss E this afternoon reminded me of how much already, at only 18 months, she shares her grandma's & great aunties' love of family, food, jewels, pet dogs, dancing and coordinating colours.
