Bayliss family news
The family are almost all back in NZ and getting on with their lives.  Only Andrew away, now living in Melbourne with Sarah, keeping busy with his building. Sarah has got a great new job and they are both saving hard.   Ian, Renee and Noah are in Narrow Neck, Auckland working at upgrading their house with a view to selling for something bigger; they have a beautiful new son - Samuel River Bayliss born on 29 March 2008.  Rosie, Richard and Daniel and Alexander (just turned one) are in Coromandel and Daniel is now at school.

We both still have various musical activities, the main ones being the Whk Music Society and running the Children's Music School. The Community Orchestra's fortunes are not so healthy, though we have just been part of a great Proms season.   Tom is having a lot of satisfaction out of keeping the house and garden looking very tidy and well cared for; also competing in the super vet section (over 70) of the Harrier Club.  I am keeping up my cycling and walking as much as I can after a health scare last year
