Well the District 9810 Group Study Exchange has sadly come to an end. After 4 weeks packed with vocational and cultural visits, the "dream team from downunder" bid farewell from Eastbourne, home of District 1130 Conference.
The first Aussie to be deported was Brett (who was put on a plane to Rome for stealing 1 x loaf of bread).
Suhanya was sentenced to another week in London and then a week in Morocco for stealing a packet of ground coffee.
Our fearless leader (Merv), Roger & Kira were all sent back to London from Eastbourne on the train to face their fate. As Merv had led such a great team he was spared deportation and was allowed to be re-united with his lovely wife Kay to tour for another 2 weeks. Roger was sentenced to one evening in London before he was put on a plane to Melbourne, while Kira escaped to Ireland.
And then there were none.........
Thanks to EVERYONE involved for making the 2007/08 Group Study Exchange the best ever. We all look forward to sharing our experiences upon our return. More photos to follow......
Cheers for now.
Merv, Kira, Roger, Suhanya & Brett.
