At the Glenmore, PW does his best rodent imitation, while Fred and Dave are amazed!.................Rick and Viv, not so much.....   While Mark and Brian try to dodge the trafic, the rain, and the security nazis making sure everyone behaved...  _________________  Chris O'Keefe R43136 Ex WO Chippy 19th MOBI Intake July 65 to July 85 HMAS Nirimba X 4 -Penguin-Sydney-Queenborough - Creswell - Moreton - Stalwart - Platypus - Coonawarra Reconstruction Team 76 - Platypus - Hobart - Cerberus - FHQ - Coonawarra.

And of course, we couldn't leave out the three lovelies who brought the sunshine into a dreary, rainy day!  and of course, once the Corindi Beach branch of the Weyling family sees all this, you can imagine what his response will be.....  _________________ Chris O'Keefe R43136 Ex WO Chippy 19th MOBI Intake July 65 to July 85 HMAS Nirimba X 4 -Penguin-Sydney-Queenborough - Creswell - Moreton - Stalwart - Platypus - Coonawarra Reconstruction Team 76 - Platypus - Hobart - Cerberus - FHQ - Coonawarra.

I have to say, I've got to hand  it to visiting GDYs Fred and Anne for their  initiative and resourcefulness...  Before I drove down to Sydney for the weekend's frivolities,  I naively offered my services to Fred and Anne as a 'knowledgeable local guide', seeing I was staying in the same hotel in Cremorne, (previously my 'home suburb' before moving to The Central Coast,) and I was 'infinitely familiar' with public transport to and from the city...  By the time I arrived at the hotel, Fred and Anne had already discovered/ mastered Sydney's ferries, had organised their weekly public transport passes, and Fred had found his way to 'The Frisco', by catching a ferry from Cremorne Point, then  WALKING  from Circular Quay to 'The Frisco'... ...stopping off for an exploration of The Botanical Gardens en route...!  Suffice to say my services were not required...!   I suspect Fred might have been a Pathfinder, or a Ranger in the USMC..!  _________________  Rick Pengilly WEBMASTER Ex-CPOMTH3 R42630 13th MOBI Intake July'62 to July'74 HMAS Nirimba - HMAS Melbourne - HMAS Cerberus - HMAS Tarangau - HMAS Lonsdale - HMAS Tarangau - HMAS Nirimba - HMAS Brisbane

For some reason unknown to me, his prescription specs got included in my luggage!!  Pete's probably wandering around Bondi by now looking for his car..... _________________ Chris O'Keefe R43136 Ex WO Chippy 19th MOBI Intake July 65 to July 85 HMAS Nirimba X 4 -Penguin-Sydney-Queenborough - Creswell - Moreton - Stalwart - Platypus - Coonawarra Reconstruction Team 76 - Platypus - Hobart - Cerberus - FHQ - Coonawarra.
