PNG


Do a search for PNG on the web and you are just as likely to get results related to a type of image file as you are information about the nation. I've been fascinated by PNG for a long time and actively devour any writings that outline life in the country. On Thursday my wife and I started talking to a man at the shopping centre. Turns out he was from PNG and only in Australia for a couple of weeks to see his cousin graduate from the University of Queensland. We asked him to come around for a gathering we were having and he said he would. Unfortunately he could only stay for about ten minutes, but he made the journey just to bring a present- a skull cap and bag that his mum had knitted. Very touching. Thanks Timmy- looking forward to visiting you in the Highlands!
