"I’m glad we all have place to come together...."
Each and every month we bring you the news and views from those who make up our user-led team, Soul Fly Buddies.
This time we hand the mic to Audrey, who tells us more about recent catch ups with her buddy, Kristy.
"Recently Kristy (below right) and I (below left) went to Sydney Zoo with her 1 year old son, Jackson. We had the best day out and it was a lot of fun. Sometimes we catch up coffee or go to the local markets.
In May we celebrated with Gig Buddies for their 9th birthday party. It was a lot of fun to catch up with everyone, have some food, have a dance and also help with picking out a name for the Gig Buddies’ car, now named Gigi.
I’m glad we all have place to come together."
- Audrey
