This, my lovely readers, could have been the record of my childhood.  I visited so many of these places as a kid, did you visit some too?  Gulgong – the $10 note town, The Canberra Tower, Old Sydney Town, Blue Mountains – I even went to camp at Broken Bay – just like this person did.  But this kid was very well travelled – they went to Lindeman Island twice!  I never went there.  They went to Hawaii – I’ve never been there.  This sleeping bag is an absolute gem and a treasure of memories.  Probably my favourite vintage I think I’ve ever found.  Do they still make these patches?  We are soon going to Hill End and Parkes and I must encourage the kids to look for patches so we might build on this!   Did you see the patch with the Speedwell Fireball bike!  Maybe they had one of those – amazeballs.

I will let the pictures do the talking.  Maybe there should be a national ‘dress up as whom ever you like day’ because I loved being Laura Ingalls (sadly no picture) and the kids and teachers and parents had so much fun.  The Jabberwocky went down really well with year 2/3H too.
