They’ve got to get used to your Liverpool accent first mate :lol: :lol:

Thank you Dave, a long journey but worth every minute of it. I am sure I will have a great time with Murray, also his friends having a chat on different subjects.

Sounds brilliant fellas, I hope you have a good trip Devo, and I hope you both a great time getting to know each other and chatting pigeons. I've not doubt that Murray and his good lady will make you feel very comfortable and at home.
Looking forwards to seeing pictures.

Devo caught the train from Melbourne to Bendigo and I met him at noon today.
We had a brief guided tour of Bendigo then headed home.
Sometimes you just strike someone who you instantly click with. George is someone I have instantly formed a friendship with.
On the hour and a half trip back we talked about a lot of things. A lot of things.
He is now sound asleep, having hardly slept for 36 hours.
The visit will be a success :D
