Would you believe it, I just read the 'Comments' section of my blogpage for the FIRST time since I started it (in March 2007). I know it's kind of a bit late, but thanks to each and every one of you for bothering to make a contribution to my blogs... much appreciated.My journey to Geelong to receive the Life Membership Award from the BDRC (Barwon Disability Resource Council) came about as predicted in my previous blog. and my Bendigo carer (Roberta) and I enjoyed the trip which included Motel accommodation, taxi fares and meals as guests of the BDRC. That's a photograph of yours truly above with the Award.
This month will close with Roberta and I attending the combined 40th birthday and housewarming of my dear daughter Leanne, whose family moved into their new home just two weeks earlier. The occasion will be held on Saturday, November 27, just one day before the annual barbecue for my team of support workers (carers).
I invited the five current team members, plus two others who worked with me over an extended period in past years, but despite my semi-serious offer of payment to those who have been invited (I though a bribe might make them attend) it would appear that there may only be two coming (with their children), but more about that in my December Christmas blog.

hi colin, congratulations on the trophy. Cabinet getting a bit full now? Have you found someone to give a hand with the autobiography or is it done? We self-published a couple of books. Hard work, but worth it, But I printed all the inner pages on my trusty little home laser printer and had cover and binding professionally done to cut costs. It's worth a try.
Cheers, Carolyn and Doug - still travelling.
Hi Colin lets hope this year finds you a little better. Sorry to hear about your horrid year last year. Congrats on the award something nice to remember!!!
Best wishes Sandy and Mal Rogers
