When Matt Lucas saw Denise he had to have his photo taken with her. Lovely guy. Beautiful gal.

Denise had this lovely lobster ravioli but it was dusted with nutmeg which was odd . We are thinking it must have been a mistake and should have been pepper but it was definitely brown and nutmeg..



The lamb was nice but very fatty and  the cous cous  and  Chickpea  salad was interesting.

The sweets were yum.

No thank you Karen. In a taxi on the way to the airport. He was leaving the car running using up our tax dollars in petrol to keep himself warm.

Thank you all for your good wishes.  Glad to leave the hotel before the circus starts with Kevin. Be careful when you step out of the lift  you might slip on all the money Kevin  is tossing around in Adelaide.

Sitting at the airport reflecting on the wonderful Forum Fest 2013.

The organisation was spot on.
The hotel was spot on.
The fun was spot on.
The company was absolutely wonderful and I mean each and every one of you. We are an incredible  group  and an inspiring gaggle of smart fun gals, confident in our own skin and nary a bitch among us. Well there may  have been moments!. It is truly  a privilege to know and spend time with  such a group and we are lucky to have found each other.

The goodies I am taking home are awesome but not as awesome as my memories.

To all our absent friends I say make a plan to join our Forum Fest next year,  possibly  in Hobart and possibly in October.  Yeah we had a square table discussion and decided that we should try another State to give more people an opportunity. Who knows maybe on to Sydney and up to Cairns in years to follow.

When Drover Jess has her B & B up and running we could even go there. LOL! One thing for sure is that we will keep this thing going.

Safe journey girls.
