Happy New Year

From the Hunter Valley - For all of those affected by the floods they will surely feel the need to have a new beginning, by putting behind them the floods, for a moment or two in time. People all over the world started have started remembering all those who were struck by the recent flood events in Queensland. People in Scotland are helping to celebrate a new start where they hope that people can begin afresh. Another group in France are beginning their day with breakfast and bubbles and invited guests are making donations to the Premier's Flood Appeal. Some have travelled far and wide to join the group. Thank you. Kirstie and Michael are having a fine dinner on the verandah where they sat, just a few weeks ago during the severe storm, for 6 hours waiting and watching rising flood waters. In Tamworth another two are sitting and sharing a platter and their desire to support all those making new beginnings. In the Hunter Valley more people are quietly recalling the floods and trusting that people can slowly start to rebuild. Best wishes for Happy New beginnings in Queensland and indeed all over Australia where floods have changed lives.
