Hi guys, sorry for this very belated email. I will start at the beginning – always a good place to start. The drive up was a dream. Very little traffic and we were virtually the only vehicle travelling north once we left civilisation. When we arrived the family were all sick with the flu bronchitis and sore ears so we did some nursing. When things started to get a bit more normal we went to some open houses – none met with all we were after.

We eere sad that a property that we really wanted, and had been monitoring from Laurieton, was sold – or so the real estate agent said – even though no under offer/contract appeared on the net. We were driving down the same street to just eyeball another property when I said to Iain there is still not a sold sign on the board out front. So I saw a man in the garage and decided to go in and ask him what the go was. He said that it was for sale as the third sale had just fallen through and would we like to come in and see the house. We bought it on the spot as we already knew we wanted it.

Amazingly, he is an NT copper who has been transferred to Alice Springs and had to be there this Monday. He was stressed to the max as was his wife. It was meant to be! We have four bedrooms and a granny flat and man cave for Iain. So come one come all. All HFFC welcome.

So what we would really like to say is that we have been thinking about you and missing you. Please pass on our regards to everyone and we will be thinking of you on Sunday and wishing we could join you for the Xmas party it all seems a little surreal to us at the moment. Loving the family time though.

Missing you all.
The Morrisons
