The Dutch Connection

This week we welcome to Van Diemans Land... Helen De Hoog! Congratulations Helen and Jake on your marriage in England... we're looking forward to the Australian version on May 30th.

This union is of course lovely for us... Firstly, we have a Sayer family member over here... to impose on, chuck the kids to... and many more things that 'go' with those family ties!

Secondly, as a minister in a dutch origin church... I am now not just 'some geezer they got in from England' ...I am actually related to nearly the whole of Tasmania it seems... and certainly the large church community around Kingston!

Thirdly, I'll be able to get to know Helen... something I'm really looking forward to!
