Lunch

Some of the ex members of the Aussie Safari Caravan Club met for lunch today, as we do every third Wednesday of each month. One of our group turned 80 years old last Sunday, so we had birthday cake and candles for him. The founder of the Club has attended the last few lunches and is doing remarkable well for a 93 year old. His wife died last year after a long illness, so he wasn't able to come to the lunches before.

While we were there, we heard that another couple, who usually come to the lunches but had gone to Queensland for a couple of months, had the axle of their caravan break on them. About $500 to have it fix. It's bad enough to have to pay exorbitant petrol prices, so caravan repairs are something caravanners don't need.
