Hello all,

No hiccups today I hope, back on my home turf again. Travelled 2700 k. And saw a lot of very dry country. Not good.

Certainly hope it was a fantastic weekend at The Cliffs, would have to have been.

In a general order of sequence, we have “A big Shearers Reunion” in Nyngan on the 23rd. (next Saturday). If you’re an old Nyngan shearer be there, if not go along anyway and spin a yarn! It’s happening at the Canonbar Hotel in Pangee St. Could be a long session! 26th. (Tuesday) takes you to the “Biggest Morning Tea” if you are in range of Menindee. It’s happening at the Pensioners hall, just think of all that home cooking, good stuff.

If you are down in “the inside country”, lash out and go to the “Warren Show” on the 30th. always a good day at a local show.

You will have to get your skates on to make it up to Fen and Cheryl at The Corner Country Store. It’s their 25th. birthday, and it’s on Sat./Sun. 30th./31st.what a weekend it will be, see attached Flyer. Something for everyone, if you’re within 500km, well worth it. I believe a lot of work is going into preparation.

When you feel like taking to the road again at “The Corner” please head down to our little township here at Wilcannia for our “Annual Field and Fun Day”, Sunday 7th. Long Weekend. Looks like being bigger than ever, at last count about 19 Exhibitors. Fabulous display of Station memorabilia coming all the way from Bathurst! Visitors 2nd. time round from Geelong. Good prize money to be won. Heaps of room to stay at Warrawong.

If you are too far away, then the Merriwa Festival of the Fleeces is on the 6th. June, great little town.

Life at a glance after that, 27th. June, Duck Creek Picnic Races.

4th. July, “ The Aberdeen Highland Games if you’re passing that way.

Much the same area, 25th./26th. Warren Polocrosse Carnival. 27th. same place, Warren Cattlemans Race Meeting.

Keep you all busy for a while I hope, so till the week’s out, remember your radio announcers guiding you on 1584, 999, 585, 567, 657. Bet you can’t put a name to them all!

Take care now, enjoy yourselves, cheers Bill Elliott  WCTA.
