heading well into middle age!

 Onny (short for Onyx) arrived as replacement therapy after Lady died and Libby disappeared early 2003. He immediately submitted to Brian's stringent discipleship program - aim straight in life and don't pee into the wind or you'll get your own back... (He was killed in mid 2007 - see article) |

 We have put this wonderful photo of Mick's pet kingfisher in because Mick and Sue were so good to Brian in accommodating him, and Mick's own artistic gift centres on bird life |
Mick took Brian to this river spot where these birds nest in the high
banks >>>
far right - Mick's attempt to paint this old man seriously out of control failed because he wouldn't stop laughing... Sadly, the man is now dying of AIDS (8/03) |
