Adelaide people working too hard!
Well it seems that Friday lunches are not so popular in Adelaide nowadays!
Unfortunately we have had to rearrange our plans and will probably now organise a Breakfast instead of a Business Lunch.
Am meeting with the guys tonight to go over our next event, the Cyclethon. Planning is well underway and I am hopeful of having a flyer to put up over the weekend.
Remember, while Ashley and Richard will be cycling non stop for 24 hours, teams that enter are not expected to do this! Instead, you can cycle on a roster system with your mates over the 24 hours which still allows you to attend to other important functions you may have on!
More details will go up in the next week so please keep on checking the web.
Catch you again soon.

So much happening .....
Sorry to take so long to write again after our meeting Monday night. A lot has been happening!
We sorted out our sponsorship levels and I am attaching a copy to this blog. Just click on the image below and it will increase in size!
I also met with Frank this morning to work out details for the Cyclethon which is coming up in a couple of months. Will put up that information once Ashley and Richard have agreed to it all. I keep making changes to things they look at so it takes a while to get replies back from the guys - you know what it is like ladies - they look at the email ..... give a loud groan and hide it away to look at later. Unfortunately later seems to take a long time coming!
Yesterday was a food filled day! I am still full from all the delicious food I consumed!
Went to a "Yum Cha" fundraising lunch for Rachel who is not only a sponsor of our Big Wish Bike Ride, but is also the Liberal Candidate for the Seat of Adelaide. So much tasty food, so many talkative people, and so much fun! I am still a learner where chopsticks are concerned so was very grateful for the offer of a fork. And no I did not win anything in the raffle either!
Then with only a couple of hours break, I attended a delightful dinner with members of the Adelaide Branch Make-A- Wish Ball Committee at the British India restaurant in Morphett Street. My goodness but that food was delicious. Again, very loud talking but great company.
Then today, after some sleep but no exercise to move all the food around, I had an early "coffee" with Frank to go through the Cyclethon details!
It is now 5pm and I am still so full that dinner might be bypassed tonight ..... husband can make his own and the kids are all out!
Don't forget to book your tickets for the Business Lunch - yes I know it is the day before the AFL Grand Final, and it is a Friday .... but that is the beauty of the day.... you can have a few drinks and not have to concentrate too hard on work when you get back (unless of course you take the afternoon off and just go home afterwards!)
Catch you all soon. Email your Lunch bookings to margaret@jgg.com.au

Great weekend ......
What a fantastic weekend we just had. After a week of stress and hard work getting our "old" house ready for new tenants (my parents moved back to NSW after spending a mere 12 months here - too cold for them in Adelaide), we had a wonderful weekend.
Saturday afternoon we lunched with a friend visiting Queensland and watched our sons SANFL team, the mighty Eagles, win their match in convincing fashion, and on Sunday afternoon/evening, we had some wonderful friends around for a casual meal.
Mr & Mrs Jaba and Rachel were amongst the group - and it was quite entertaining. Did have to "rein in the volume" once as the guys were getting quite passionate in their football discussions, but all in all we enjoyed ourselves. It was such a nice break from everything else going on in our lives at the moment! Thanks friends for your company!
Tonight we have a BWBR (Big Wish Bike Ride) meeting with Ashley and Richard to finalise sponsorship packages for our cycling jerseys.
A number of businesses have asked "How much will it cost me to get on your jersey?" .... so tonight we will decide! Wish us luck please as this is a new area for us.
Did you hear Ashley and me on Coast FM last week? Frank did, although he missed most of the conversation. Thanks for affirming us Frank.
Will give another update after the meeting and let you know what was decided. Remember to book your tables/tickets for the Business lunch in September.
Cheers ......
