I've taken out the uniform, attached the medals and laid out the sword. Tomorrow morning we greet the dawn in our front garden in the company of our neighbours in their front gardens, as we line our street.

Well, that went well. We had Anzac biscuits ready to share with our neighbours but they all disappeared back inside before we could bring them out. :confused:

Do you think it was the sword? :lol:

I'm just taking a stab in the dark, but I reckon you are probably right.

Lucky you weren't in uniform the first time we met. I still remember your big smile that day. Think we were both pretty happy to meet. Must have been at least 7 years ago probably longer?
