I would like to once again wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year for 2011 and personally thank the Newcomers Network representatives in Australia, Ireland and the United Kingdom for all of their work this year.
We have some news. I will be hosting the final Welcome to Melbourne event tonight and the fifth Christmas Day Picnic Lunch on Saturday 25 December 2010 (details below).
