Bob,
Thanks for the pics of the front and back of the flag! It's moved around quite a bit... until 2010. I hope we can get it going again. Appreciate you rounding it up and getting it back on it's way again.  8-)

It was easy, one well placed email !!!!

I'll make a few more postings to members that may want to sign it and get it on it's way .

I'll hold onto the flag for a month or so and if no one else shows interest, I'll send it back to you Ms Buck .

Justin.

When you are done with it, send it to me (I'll help with postage). Petermc and I can sign locally and there is another (non-active) member at Kuranda which is a mere 20km from me. I could then forward to other Oz members and after as many as possible of us have signed, send on to  the UK where the next biggest cache of members seems to be.

Lou,

You sent that flag to me and I sent it on to Trolle in Denmark. He confirmed receiving it and said he would send it on to Bali

Yeah that's my signature.  Shows what a good memory I lack.  I remember meeting Melana (can't remember how she spells her name) --saw her name on the flag and fixed my spelling -- and a few others at Redmond.  Sue, you didn't make it to that one did you? 

I guess I don't need the flag.   :-[

I can send an email to Trolle, in admin mode, I have access to his email address, if non-admin members cannot access his email address from his profile .

He still appears to be alive, he was last online the first week of January this year .
