Completion of PhD thesis. It was entitled ‘Private sorrow in the public domain’ in which Sue researched the growing phenomenon of roadside memorials. Her thesis contained over 100,000 words, over 400 pages and took nearly six years to complete. Sue commented that it will take about three months for the examiners to mark it and then it may need more tweaking. Completion was a time for celebration with Chris at their favourite Italian restaurant in Jindabyne.

‘Hands’: Artists Ro Murray and Mandy Burgess displayed 80 large hands made of hydro-stone, hessian and wire. The first display in the morning was in a rural Milton setting at Raymondo’s place and then they popped up and down during the afternoon at Collers Beach. Both setups were to enable outdoor photo shots for entering the Sculptures in the Killalea festival to be held at Shellharbour in mid-October.
