Hi girls,
It took a while but today my story is in the local paper. I haven't seen it yet but I have had some phone calls about how big the article is. Yeh just in time whilst BCNA is receiving great reviews about Shane Crawford's walk. Things are starting to progress!XLeonie
That is great Leonie, "better late than never". Our local paper are silent, I am going to re-send mine ha ha. Take care! xx
Mandy,
I had to be very persistant. But now I have a NAME. Look out.XLeonie
Hi Shirl,
Boy didn't I get a shock when I read the paper. My photo was really big and the story was the main feature of the page. It took up more than half the page. My husband gets the paper on his way to work so at 6.30am this morning he got a huge surprise to see moi looking at him......Did you put your mobile contact number in with your article?? I thought that was part and parcel of it. My husband thinks I'll get crank, weirdo calls!!!!!!!!So bloody protective. The phone hasn't rung once yet. I am very excited about having the mini field of women on 23rd October. We all celebrate October at work by decorating the office - lots of patients etc come through so it's good publicity. My friend Terri is going to Melb for the Sept training. She is a nurse at the hospital so we hope to do quite a bit of publicity for BCNA especially in October. Keep chatting - I love to see all the comments.XLeonie

Hi Leonie,
Great to see things are going so well for you. I haven't had any response yet from the papers but I'm going to keep at them though. I've made a contact at the local community centre though who is really keen to help me as much as she can. I'm having my Mini-Field of Women tomorrow at the centre. So I hope the sun is shining.

Hi Karen
It doesn't matte what we do - every little bit helps. I have had some response from my article in the paper. I am going to be guest speaker at the Emu Park, coastal town about 45 minutes away, RSL Mini Field of Women Morning Tea on 25th October. I am so looking forward to my first talk. I just hope I don't talk too much. It's funny, when I told the girls at work, because I was really excited to be asked, I could see "green eyed monsters". Silly buggers all I'm trying to do is get the message out there for all "us girls". They are not too bad (going to have a morning tea in October to raise some funds) but I won't miss the bull.....when I retire next year. Keep on trying from your end - it will happen.XLeonie PS We are decorating the dental clinic reception area in pink and all the girls are wearing pink shirts each day for October.
Yep I know what you mean, some people are mad.. talk about jealous (like for my rose garden.. they are just not as bright he he. any group could approach the council). My birthday is 25th Oct, lucky me!
