Launching Bungaree
In May Peter and I met the Governor of NSW several times over 2 weeks. She is very unassuming, caring and competant. One speech she gave about Governor Macquarie was filled with information and delivered without notes - most impressive!
The occasions were
- Presenting Peter with an Order of Australia for his work in computing and the community at Government House
- Honouring Emeritus Professor Harry Messel who has done so much for Physics in Australia - at the Great Hall, Sydney University
- Launching the book Bungaree about the Aboriginee a significant figure in Macquarie's day who was given land on Middle Head in Mosman.
