Annette and Gerry returned to Watson, South Australia, only two weeks after their wedding and anxiously awaited the arrival of the weekly Sugar Train that was carrying all of their floor coverings and furniture for their new home. This was the honeymoon they wanted, putting their new home together and making it cosy for them. The arrival of the Sugar Train was so special to Annette that she hand sewed a new pink skirt in which to greet the train.
