Joy Long
We see Joy’s husband Longy at the pool every morning. But we only see Joy occasionally. She always has a smile for us.
Longy told us that Joy (nee Ivill) is an artist. Her works of joyful embroidery storytelling have been collected by the Powerhouse Museum.
“Joy is a keen walker and an excellent cook!”
What the Actual Cup?

That should have read ”what, the actual cup?”. Yes it is!
The actual Melbourne Cup was brought down to the beach on Saturday as part of a promotion for the race coming up in a few months.
Spring has Sprung
There was some excitement on the Iceberg’s board this morning. Spring has sprung!
Marathoners come to Bondi
Bondi has had a lot of Sydney marathoners coming for a visit since Sunday’s event. How they’re not lying prostrate somewhere is a bit beyond us.
Jean March and Afra, who had come from France for the marathon were here for the day before flying home.
Jesus with the Book
Jesus is holding an advance copy of Love, Bondi, which is being launched at Gertrude & Alice next month. Jesus is on page 29.
