The Importance of Being Ernest |
Mt. St. Mary’s, Greenmeadows. Sun. 28th March ’71. Dear Mum & Dad, The time just seems to be flying! We finished Grapes last Tuesday – at last. It’s good to have it all over, even though it just means that we go back to classes! What’s the story about the Waikanae Rock Festival & the Rotary Club? Everyone here awaits anxiously for news about the latest ‘scandal’ from the little town of Waikanae! Has Tony got anything to do with it? I have started going for runs again. Last Thursday – the Annunciation – we went on a Conge to Puketapu. We seem to be having our summer now because it has been a cloudless sky for over a week. So at the Conge we spent most of the day swimming. I went to see Dr. O’Shaunnessey the other day & he says that every thing’s O.K. Pompallier College was opened in Whangarei last Sunday by the Cardinal. Fr. Bennett is one of the three priests on the staff there. It was a very successful opening apparently. I went down to Meeanee yesterday to gather walnuts. I saw Fr. Chaney who seems to be very well. Well, that seems to be all the news. Love from Bruce |
