Hi all 

Hope you are well,

I've had a lovely week with the Singletons in Kellyville ridge, we had ride for refugees on Saturday and they raised $26 thousand! excellent fun,

I've been very blessed to be abl to use Mark Hallings car the past few days too, he works a 5 min drive form the Singletons house! How fortunate!!

I've been up to the Blue mountains which were AMAZING so beautiful, I went to scenic world and down the worlds steepest railway and up the cable car, I saw lush rain forest and beautiful views! such a good day, I've had days of chilling with the family, photos to follow, the children are gorgeous, Joel has asked to come with me to Melbourne! very tempted to take him with me, must remember child stealing is not good!!

I've been to a hillsong conference while I"ve been here that has been amazing, real experts in their field talking about emotional and relational healing, it was fascinating both for me and any future job I may do! totally loved it, also heard Mike Pilavachi and the Powerhouse Hillsong event, after Soul Survivor it felt quite a small venue!

I'm back off to Sydney and Saturday I am going whale spotting with Louise and Mark, whoop can't wait and possibly meet Andre on Sat night.

Then it will be time to head off to Melbourne, i think I'm going to aim to go Monday/Tuesday.


I have on hilarious story to leave you with, Melanie, a room mate of mine and I went out for a cocktail on the harbour by our backpackers, we returned and thought we'd have a quick drink, it was ladies night at our local bar and there was free champagne for a little while after we go there so we had one or two of those, I moved onto water a short while after and we played pool and danced etc, it was 2am before we knew it, I sat down for a breather and Melanie carried on dancing. A big burly bouncer beckoned me over, so i went to talk to him

"how much have you had to drink"

Me: err some champagne earlier, why?

B: I think you've had enough, you need to leave

Me Pardon?

B: the boss wants you to leave

Me: (knowing I can't argue or I'll look drunk) er ok then!!

I left after convincing Melanie that I wasn't joking and was actually being asked to leave for being drunk, while considerably sober

Oh what fun!

that's outrageous - how dare they ask you to leave, as if my daughter would ever have too much to drink!!
