Started this week with a party to celebrate of Mark’s 6 months of sobriety. Great effort mate, and great to be able to celebrate the milestone as a mob. A ’6′ party complete with gifts of a ’6′ nature – from a 6 cake to my 6 (squared) reasons for celebrating 6, including:

Reason #8: It’s the maximum number of degrees of separation everyone in the world is from Kevin Bacon.
Reason #4: It’s the number of ways inside Robert Smith’s (of The Cure fame) heart.
Reason #20: It’s the number of geese a layin’.

Then we proceeded with the home blessing for Dunstan St, following a similar liturgy to the one we did for Chris and Jane’s house in August last year, including the giving of gifts.

Finally after dinner an intense, difficult, but great conversation ensued about community expectations and hopes and fears.
