From Melbourne (Anne) : 18.9.83

From Melbourne
18.9.83

Dear Alan,
                If this letter gets to you could you please send a postcard or something so that I know.

                I am writing mainly to wish you a happy birthday @ belated wishes if this letter here after your birthday.

                Your birthday once again is on Grand Final day. The Grand final is between Hawthorn and Essendon who finished third and fourth on the ladder. All the regulars Carlton, Richmond and Collingwood did badly this year which was good to see. Most people are predicting Essendon to win.

                Dennis, Benjamin and I went to the show on Friday night. We saw the animals and also the fireworks which was very good.

                Benjamin will be 4 on the 28th of September. Time flies!  Next year he will got to kindergarten. This year he goes to an all-day childcare center which he enjoys.

                The Wombat State Forest near Mum’s place is recovering well after the extensive bushfires. Even the wild animals e.g. Wombats and Wallabies are coming back though there is not much for them to eat. The grass and undergrowth is growing back and most of the gum trees have regenerated.

                Dennis starts a new job tomorrow as an auto-electrician. He is really looking forward to it as it is much more interesting than factory work.

                I hope all is well with you and your work

                                                                love Anne, Dennis and Benjamin XXXXXXXXXX
