As we gathered Lucy met up with a couple of young kids from Oxley that knew her and they had a great time holding her lead.
We marshaled in Appel St, Marched down Verney Rd East. Left onto Oxley Rd and then left again into the driveway at the park. I was very impressed that "they" managed to close and march on Oxley Rd. Earlier this year and last year the Anzac day marches did not go on Oxley rd - In my view an indication that the terrorists had won.
As we marched down the driveway there was quite a nice scene of the marches in the foreground and people playing cricket in white on an oval surrounded by a low white picket fence. To me it's the sacrifice made by our ancestors and to this day by our soldiers that gives us the safe and free society we live in today.
At the service Lucy was very well behaved.
We had a minutes silence at 11:11:11....
Jemma laid a wreath on behalf of the guides.
And guess what our local pollie - Jess Pugh lead the national anthem acapella and a very good and respectful rendition too.
