I was wondering where you went as the emails bounced back. I tried to refer another associate of mine on to you (based on the great service you provided from Asus) I will send you my contact details and we can catch up. PS: the Eee is fine although he screen recently started flickering again (?) not sure why. Cheers Tony Richad

Men don't find it easy to expose their vulnerability, however in doing so a man's stature is unsurpassed. Beautifully expression of love that one day will be cherished by the women who were once your girls. Written from the heart is right.

Stubbies shorts? For sure. It seems like longer ago, another age - such carefree days hey? You can still see the Malabar Rd etched onto the side of the road today, as in the photo. It was completely random that the photo appeared - no-one remembers it being taken. I haven't got the original, it says Farifax Images has it though. I should enquire. Hi Frances

Did you used to wear Bata Scouts? The girls had Bata Ponytails with purple inserts and a bit of a heel! Stubbies shorts? You take me back to my childhood in Randwick, it's so nice to remember. Love Charlie's glasses, God bless those old men, they went through 2 wars and a Depression. I was born in 1972, so you must be about 4 years older than me. That's a classic, did you get a copy of the original? Wow, I remember those school cases! Did you used to wear Bata Scouts? The girls had Bata Ponytails with purple inserts and a bit of a heel!

My brother had a Morey Boogie Board. We used to watch the fireworks from our verandah and loved “cracker night” letting off firecrackers. A great yarn.

Did you seen Gavin's post? He picked up my tweet and it got him thinking - his post was wonderful. See <a href="http://life-with-aspergers.blogspot.com/2009/07/man-week-fighting-stereotypical-aussie.html" rel="nofollow">http://life-with-aspergers.blogspot.com/2009/07/man-week-fighting-stereotypical-aussie.html</a> If you would like to participate there is a book being planned where we are all encouraged to write a few more words about what it means to be a man, and communicate our feelings.

As an author, I'm often faced with scenarios where my characters are expressing or thinking about their feelings. Sometimes, although not often, I'm faced with the fear that one of my close family may mistake one of my fictional rants as my true feeling towards them personally and that this may lead to guilt, suspicion, mistrust... I wouldn't be true to my writing if I hid my feelings behind cliches and compliments only. So it should be with our dealings in real life. Unfortunately, my father died many years ago, and I was never able to truly express my love for him . We each knew we loved one another, but knowing and saying are two very, very different things.
