Christmas day lunch

A white Melbourne Christmas, who would have thought and our 5th annual Ferntree Gully Christmas day lunch. We had over 150 turn up on the day for a great feast and fun. There were many great and sad stories of people who would normally have nowhere to go. We had an amazing team of volunteers who worked tirelessly throughout the day, the Christmas angel came and brought great cheer (and presents) to all. Many of our kids took part in our great impromptu Nativty play, as we shared the story of God's gift to us in the form of Jesus. All in all a great time summed up by one woman with tears in her eyes as she left saying, "This has been the best Christmas of my life".

The rants and ramblings of one who tries to do his bit to make the world a better place

: Name: Barro; Location: Ferntree Gully, Melbourne, Australia

Red curry is my favorite curry, but orange juice gets me going. I try and swim 3 times per week, and walk a little in between. I love cricket and footy, I was there when the Pies won their last flag, my first album was Deep Purple, I used to be in love with Suzy Q, I like Star Wars, but the original 3 were much better than the latest ones. Martin Luther King is one of my heroes, I love watching my children grow up,and sometimes I get to read the paper. I enjoy good coffee, but not too much. I hang out to wake up next to my best mate Helen each morning and not rush off to save the world. I wish the Beatles were still together, I tried to play the guitar a few times, I love to ride my Harley, I hate walking in the rain when I get wet, and I hate people who waffle on about themselves...
