And Meryl, I saw you on tv (well the tv item on my computer anyway). You were very dignified. Loved to rose.
Thank you. :-*

Me too! The pictures are awesome! I like how cosy it looks in there!
I cannot watch the clip at work, but will do at home! Meryl how lucky to have been there with the TV crew present.

Thank you so much, dear John and Meryl, for sharing your wonderful day of remembrance for Heath with us. I felt right at home in the Tuck Shop. Saw lots of familiar Aussie products.
"Tuck Shop" in the Australian vernacular is what all Aussie kids call their school canteen; e.g., "What are you getting for lunch at the tuck shop?" It comes from "tucker" which is an Australian colloquialism meaning "food," as in the jolly swagman's "tucker bag" in the famous Australian anthem "Waltzing Matilda."

I love your photos, John. :D

John, AKA Jimmy Olson, "our man in New York", thank you for the photojournalism. You make NYC look downright cozy.
Meryl, very dignified tribute to our Heath. :-*
I find it fitting, Meryl, that your 15 minutes of fame comes at a time when John is sporting the Andy Warhol look. :)

Thank you so much for taking the trip to Broome Street again yesterday, and for taking us with you.

What Sue said.
Meryl, it's so great that they showed you on Australian TV. What a strange world it is: a young guy leaving Australia for LA years many ago, bringing all of us together here in this internet place through his work with others on BBM, and now the circles closes with you being shown on Australian TV. If only the occasion weren't such a sad one.... :(
John, fabulous photo report again. You do have a knack for it.
Thank you so much again, both of you. :-*

Awesome Meryl! I read over on Sue's blog that she saw you on the news in Australia at Broome St. I had to see it and sure enough it was you plain as day.
