All have been good even though some were sad when we lost loved ones.
The key factor in our long standing partnership has been our family of 20 children, grandchildren, partners and one little great grandchild, whose love we treasure.
We also believe that no matter what is wrong with the world, there is much more that is good.
It’s a pleasure to try to add to that which is good and to share this privilege with friends like you.
May grace and peace be with you all, today and always.

PS. The photo below was taken at The Steak House in Taupo, New Zealand, in October when we celebrated our 65th wedding anniversary.
And we will enjoy many more anniversaries as I am only 92 and Helen is a young 86.
You will notice a box marked ‘ship to a different address’.
Click on it to enter your friends name and address so I can post the package of books direct to them. Saves you the cost of double handling.
Should you decide to be a bit conservative and not give all four, you can choose any 1, 2 or 3 of them and I will still do all that I promised above (at a lesser price).
Individually, each book costs 25 dollars plus 10 dollars postage and packaging.
Let me give you a brief comment on each one.
CATCHING THE LINVILLE TRAIN. It is my latest and is a history of the great events that influenced your life and mine over the 92 years of my era which began in the tiny village of Linville in the Queensland bushlands in 1931.
A BEAUTIFUL SUNSET. A compelling novel that about a man with a terminal illness who makes his final three months the finest of his life.
DINNER WITH THE FOUNDING FATHERS. An historical novel that tells the magnificent story of how Edmund Barton, Alfred Deakin, Samuel Griffith and their colleagues founded the new nation of Australia in 1901.
THE MAN ON THE TWENTY DOLLAR NOTES. Inspirational life story of John Flynn, Flynn of the Inland, Australia’s greatest nation builder. He created the Pedal Radio, Royal Flying Doctor Service and School of the Air.
Happy to supply more details if you wish.
Send me a direct message on Twitter or by Facebook Messenger and I will respond quickly.
DON’T DELAY.
My local Postmaster tells me that any packet of books that I post after 13 December may not get to its destination before Christmas.
Cheers.

PS. You can also buy my books online from any of Amazon, Booktopia, Dymocks, Fishpond etc or get them by e-books on Kindle. Only problem is I won’t be able to sign them.
Want to give a valued friend an interesting Christmas present?
May I humbly suggest that you just can’t do better than giving your friend all three of my books?
This is the way you and I will personalise the deal.
I will write your friend’s name in each one, add a greeting from you and me and sign them.
The packet will be posted directly to them so it arrives in the week before Christmas.
Placing a Christmas Order with me is very easy.
Send an email to me at the address for my book sales,
everald@bigpond.com
Give me the name and postal address of your friend as well as your mobile number. Include details of the greeting you want me to write in the book.
I will send you an email confirming your order and giving you my bank details so you can remit 50 dollars to me.
My three books are pictured below.
DINNER WITH THE FOUNDING FATHERS tells the inspirational tale of how the new nation of Australia was founded in 1901.
A BEAUTIFUL SUNSET is a gripping novel about a man with a terminal illness who decides to make the final three months of life the greatest of all his days.
THE MAN ON THE TWENTY DOLLAR NOTES is a powerful history of the greatest nation builder Australia has ever produced – John Flynn, Flynn of the Inland.
50% of the royalties on my book sales are given to ACTS, the community service arm of the Aspley Uniting Church, of which I am Chair. It gives direct cash grants to people who are in genuine need such as victims of floods, fires, droughts, domestic violence and poverty.
Send your email to me right now so an old bloke like me has time to get all the orders ready to post in mid December.
One more thought.
If you would like to enjoy my three books for your own Christmas holiday reading, or make it a gift to one of your family, the same deal of 50 dollars free of postage still applies. I will personalise and sign them for you and post them right away.
Either way, I will watch out for your email.
Cheers

PS. Some advance news. My next book CATCHING THE LINVILLE TRAIN is now with my publishers, Echo Books. It will be available for your Easter holidays next year.
