The Broomhall’s sweep through town

08Jun06

Ok, I know it’s cheesy, but I work for a national tabloid, what can I say? Last night we were fortunate to be graced by the presence of two intrepid travellers making their way home from Haifa. They started off in Paris and have many other destinations to follow before they arrive back in Australia at the end of August, needless to say were pleased to receive them on the London leg of their journey. Edward and Noel Broomhall both served at the Baha’i World Centre while Manijeh and I were there, in fact they were their long before us and long after us too, but as is the way of these things their time to leave had come. Edward served in the Department of Conservation and Noel worked in Master Reference Files. No doubt their dedicated services will be sorely missed.

Anyway, we were delighted to have the chance to host them at our home for dinner with another ex-BWC friend, Peter Lorinc. We reminisced and caught up on all the latest Haifa news while hearing about all the interesting places Noel and Edward would be visiting after they left us. It was also a great chance to get to know them a little better, it’s not often you meet people who’ve had seven kids, four of whom are adopted and all from different countries! They are quite the dynamic couple and we’re only sorry we didn’t get to see more of them while we’d been Haifa…

Peter, Edward, Noel, Vince and Manijeh

    Goodness, the five of you still look like you did two/three years ago when I last saw you! Is Peter in UK for good?

    Manijeh, remember when you, Peter, Edward, Noel, and I were on stage once with the choir singing “Blessed Is The Spot”? Memories, eh?

    I will let you know when I visit London to visit the queen, which is of course you.

    I am so gald to discover that I’m NOT the only one labelling photos after leaving the World Centre!
