Family Boos Farewell


Ok kids, where's the greens !!!


A big Uringa crowd gathered at Jane & Dave's to farewell our Swiss expats Sibylle, Matthias, Noel and Corsin. Food was excellent sprinkled with much laughter throughout the evening!


Before dessert was served we all sat down in the "cinema" to view some photos of the Boos family in action. Ron gave an impromptu speech and presented the family with a piece of original Sydney sandstone on a mount, courtesty of Gayle's backyard.


The "cinema"


The culinary highlight was the dessert buffet which featured a carrot cake bake-off between Switzerland and Australia, the jury is still out to decide the winner !! Margrit also went to a lot of trouble baking a beautiful cake decorated with a perfect Swiss flag !


Australia vs Switzerland - carrot cake off!



And the winners were: our stomachs!


The evening ended with Uringans coming alive at "The Sound of Music" !

Sibylle, Matthias, Noel and Corsin have been with our club for the last 2 years and we will all miss their companionship. As we bid them farewell, we wish them all the best settling back into Swiss life. They will always be part of the Uringa family.
