Today has been a real tea day.

We had Australia's Biggest Morning Tea in our community hall. We had 35 out of 41 residents of our village and well over 70 altogether. It is going to be interesting to find out how much we made.

Australia' Biggest Morning Tea is held every year at this time to raise money for cancer research.

When we came home there was a parcel for me, a container of tea from Australia's only tea farm. It's the Madura brand if you ever see it. Madura helped with a Tea display at a nearby Chinese museum.I wrote them a letter saying how good it was that they helped.

So, today is a good tea day.

Take care,

Gordon.

41 residents in your village? Wow, but that sounds like heaven.

And what a very cool thing to do, raising money for cancer research. When you find out, will you let us know how much you were able to raise? Good on you, Gordon. :-4 :-6

I'm not sure of the exact amount but was over $700.

I live in a retirement village but outside is a city of 100,000. But it's nice and quiet here.

Take care,

Gordon.
