It's Marilyn's birthday today - her 80th, as it happens. We're celebrating it at the local Bowls Club and are expecting about 40 people. However, it's not the biggest show in town; today is also the Annual Northern Tasmanian Truck Run. The showground will be packed with eager enthusiasts keen to see the big rigs. They're already lining the streets to welcome the machines and I hope it's all clear before we have to set off.
Jamie has been the main organiser of Marilyn's party and my part has only been to prepare the "Pass the Parcel'. I remember when I was given much more responsibility but, sadly, those days seem to have passed. Madeleine and the kids have travelled down from Brisbane for the event and we're expecting them to pop in this morning to see us.
