Friday 5th: There must be no nicer feeling on earth than driving down the sunny road on a Friday, heading home from school, having had a short sojourn in Mickey Bourkes.
There was a funeral in the church today and a reception in our school hall afterwards. The Parents' and Friends' Association did the catering voluntarily and the proceeds went to the school. They will do the same in a few weeks at the Port Fairy Folk Festival, where they will have a food stand for the whole weekend and the proceeds go to the school. As the funeral was for the mother (RIP) of a priest, quite a few priests, principals and CEO employees paid me a courtesy visit. The welcome that I have received to date has been overwhelming.
