April 2009 pt 1

Easter was a great weekend spent relaxing with friends at home.

Well another busy weekend has come and gone.
I flew to Sydney on Friday where I met up with Libby and we sent out for dinner before retiring to our hotel rooms.

Saturday say me attend National Team meeting at National Office in Chatswood, it was a busy day but i believe it was productive. Saturday evening I jumped on a train to Thornleigh to head to Pennant Hills for the NSW Rovers Dinner and the rest of the Conference. Numbers in attendance were a little disapointing but it was a good night overall. My crew were awarded 2 awards... Quality Rovering Award and Lodge BP Rover Service.

Sunday saw a presentation for Hike 4 Hunger and discussions on RA and Rover age ranges, BP procedures and after lunch the NSW Rover AGM and BRC meeting were held. The new exec were elected in a reasonably quick meeting.

The weekend was ended with a flight home... slept through it all :)

Tomorrow (Tue 21st) will be a big and nerve racking day for me I go for my Provisional licence I know I can do everything required for it but test always make me really really nervous and this means allot for me so i'm even more nervous. I just hope it doesn't affect me to the point I stuff up. Will let you know tomorrow how I go.

I can't wait to go to Port on Friday (24th) when Rebecca and I travel for Anzac Day and Scott's Birthday Party.

Something I found and love its so true :)

Hugs
It's wondrous what a hug can do,
A hug can cheer you when you're blue,
A hug can say, 'I love you so',
or 'Gee! I hate to see you go',
A hug is, 'Welcome back again!' and,
'Great to see you!' or 'Where've you been?',
A hug can soothe a small child's pain
and bring a rainbow after rain.
The Hug! There's just no doubt about it,
we scarcely could survive without it.
A hug delights and warms and charms,
it must be why God gave us arms.
Hugs are great for fathers and mothers,
sweet for sisters, swell for brothers, and
chances are some favourite aunts,
love them more than potted plants.
Kittens crave them. Puppies love them.
Heads of state are not above them.
A hug can break the language barrier,
And make the fullest day seem merrier.
No need to fret about the store of 'em,
The more you give the more there are of 'em.
So stretch those arms without delay
and give someone a hug today.
