Bernard Devlin Enlistment papers

A family of blagguards and misfits

Found the photo Darryl, though I am not sure who all the people are. Not really sure where we were at all.

Finally sorted out Aunty Claire's speech from the BBQ in 2009'. The audio needs a bit of work, but I don't have the program to fix it.

Something about the Leung's

 Hi Devo's




Well Viv has leaped in and given you all the Drum about her family. I suppose I can do the same. Mind you at the inaugural reunion Darryl greeted me with "Hi ! Cathy the last time I saw was in 1970. We were in jail together." I quickly had to tell my husband (David) that it was at Lunar Park and it was meant as a joke.  I must find that photo I have it somewhere.






Darryl Devlin - mouth shut.

Fair go, Darryl I haven't exactly told him everything. I was introducing Dave to the family, some of you have met him before, he is a quiet man who loves fishing and boating and rugby. Most of you would have also had the opportunity to meet Damien, Natasha and the children Courtney and Zac. I gave Damien up for adoption in 1972 and we made contact in 2000. Natasha can see where the humour and the madness comes from. Damien is a policeman and knows Will and Chomper. Dave and I married up in Cairns in 1981. We have three children Samara (27) Kimmy (Kimberley-Claire) (24) and Jaydon (22).

Dave and I in London (Sept 2010)




Dave Viv and I have recently returned from a trip to the UK and Europe. While we are over there we met up with Alistair Fischer - Nin's nephew and Dad, Andy and Claire's cousin. He had a great night, Alistair cooked us a lovely pork roast and we talked and laughed into the small hours. We left him and his son Laurence to clean up as we had to be on the bus at 4am to start our tour.



Laurence, Cath, Alistair & Viv

Also caught up with  (B)Will and Claire in Brisbane in October, lovely night out with the cousin from Mossman.

Cheers

Cath
