Bruce finally got to celebrate his birthday with Kate, Mark, Alex & Phil at the new Sandy Yacht Club. Food was good, but not the service – pity, ‘cos it is a great location.

Here is Bruce, with his strawberry birthday ‘cake’. The strawberries were delicious, and not over cooked.

Today starts the rest of our life. On Friday Bruce was ‘retired’ from SapientNitro (previously known as CumminsNitro and Cummins & Partners), the company he joined nearly 3½ years ago as the ‘old fart’.
Ironically, he had worked a solid month, with only one weekend off and finished his last day at 2am, a mere 11 hours before he was ‘put off’.
So I am off to work and Bruce will spend the day on R&R.
What next?
Hayden’s birthday present to Bruce was administration rights to his website moustache.com.au, giving him the ability to change and rearrange content. This is Bruce’s showcase of his work over the last 40 years in advertising and in need of updating. Next is a redesign of the site.
We also quickly managed to set up a personal email address bruce@moustache.com.au.
There will be a little freelance work and a lot of time to walk, read, take photos, see art exhibitions and reflect on a long and interesting career. Of course planning future excusions to those parts of the world we haven’t yet seen will be a very high priority.
So today starts a new chapter…

First blog by Thea. Need to know how best to create a blog so I can set up a ‘Kilbreda girls’ site. We have a need to share photos, travel experiences and just news in general.
