Macksville Show Deadlines - Hand in Entry Forms and Money Next Tuesday

Image
Elwin is making it easy for our group. All you have to do is bring in your Entry Form and $5 per entry. Elwin will make sure it is delivered to himself. If you cannot come to art next week, then between now and 5.00pm next Tuesday 2 April 2024, you can deliver the form and money to Elwin's place at 17 Barrie St, Macksville. Don't panic you will still have another week after entries to finish your masterpieces.

Penny's Mum's Favourite Jokes.

  Penny says her mum had a wicked sense of humour. Here a few of her favourites. What do you think, wicked or wise? IF NOBODY KNOWS THE TROUBLES YOU’VE BEEN, THEN YOU DON’T LIVE IN A SMALL TOWN.

LIVE WITHIN YOUR INCOME EVEN IF YOU HAVE TO BORROW TO DO SO. WHEN IT COMES TO THOUGHT SOME PEOPLE STOP AT NOTHING. IT’S LONELY AT THE TOP. WELL, IT’S NO BIG PARTY AT THE BOTTOM. AGEING IS BAD.

Scotts Head Art Show

Image
 This show is just after the Macksville Show which means you will have a masterpiece ready to go. Unless of course it is sold at the show. Elwin has application forms and Penny has offered to do all the running around being a Scotts Head resident. Could it be any easier.

 It was probably no coincidence that chose morning teatime for a visit, but it was good to see him.
