Gary's 60th Birthday/Beachlands

---

We were invited out to Beachlands to celebrate Joel's Dad's 60th Birthday. The extended family were there having travelled from New Plymouth and Whangarei to celebrate with Gary. Friends of Gary and Sandra's travelled across Auckland to celebrate this momentous birthday.
Yes Joel's Mum's name is Sandra like mine quite a coincidence.

It was a beautiful day, the weather being hot and sunny. Sandra had prepared a wonderful lunch and Joel was once again a star on the BBQ.

On show was Chelle's new acquistion a boat by the name of Charisma. In fact a pink boat by the name of Charisma. Very nice indeed.

I was given a beautiful bunch of yellow roses by a friend at the weekend. My friend has been very sick and I helped out a little hence the roses as a thankyou.
