Great Uncle Michael doesn’t quite understand what it’s like to be blessed with child.
But after this afternoon’s non-stop chasing of young Jude over the grass in Rushcutter’s Bay Park while my bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich and coffee got cold, perhaps I’m the one who got it right!

Great Uncle Michael declares that there's nothing cruel about putting an overly energetic child 'on a 'leash' after getting such bad indigestion running after Jude while trying to eat my sandwich
The fresh salmon sushi that I brought with me as a wee treat for Bill and Mindy had to be thrown away. Even after I ordered three meals and three coffees at the kiosk in the park for lunch, the dragon lady of an owner sent a girl to remind me that only food bought at the kiosk could be consumed at the tables. Her shortsightedness makes me vow never to return!
Dear Mick,
We love the photos of ‘Bill_Mark_II’ aka ‘Jude’. You can tell that the ‘World is his Oyster’. When I was 47 (sigh) I’m not sure I would’ve been as fast as Bill; but I’m sure I was in hot pursuit even then.
Love Tony
Michael
What great family photos. Jude certainly is growing into a fine little man. I’m sure you are not spoiling him at all …. not much.
Cheers
Jennifer
you can really feel the love and pride billy has for jude in these photos.
