Hi Julia,
Well since last Friday, a lot has happened in the life of Barry Brebner. On Friday evening, Colleen & I attended the Dubbo Chamber of Commerce & Industry Business Awards here in Dubbo. It was a gala Black Tie event and what I did not know was that I was to be inducted into the Jean Emile Serisier - Role of Honour. This award is one of Dubbo's highest business honours and was presented to me for my contribution to Dubbo over the last almost 40 years. I must say I was deeply honoured and privileged to receive the Award.

On Saturday morning, I was up early for  a car trip to Newcastle where I attended the concert of Andre Rieur along with six thousand other people at the Newcastle Entertainment Centre. What a concert it proved to be and certainly well worth the effort. He is a great entertainer and the music was fabulous.

Regards till next week
Barry
