Once again, Sunday, even better attendance, a great write -up in todays 'Hobart Mercury' newspaper ..A much better laid back day, with me answering questions all day, managing to shoot out and buy a seafood feast for dinner[and chat with a lady breastfeeding her baby beside me as i ate my lunch]..and i drank a cherry cola,.,.[my first one],..,Atmosphere was buzzing like a beehive and we had many interstate and statewide guests--The smell of vanilla[from the orientals] wafted into the 2 surrounding streets and our show opener 'Mr Leo Schofield' A world travelled critic, commented that '' even if he had been blind, and parked his car outside of the hall[thats scary]- he would have been able to find the show''.. I believe nothing will ever better this one show[even though i said it last year],..,'download pics tomorrow' --thanks for all the inspirational comments, i was riding on them,..,Anthony Thumbs up

The old soda fountain stores where the used to put the cherry flavoring in the cola, yum! I loved the lime in the cola. Seems like the cola tasted better back then.
