I'd like to pay tribute to a prominent member of the Blue Mountains community affectionately referred to as 'the Gnome Master', David Cook. David worked tirelessly for his community as a long-time Rotarian, having joined Lower Blue Mountains Rotary in 1995. As a past district governor, David and his wife Carolyn hosted youth exchange students and led group study teams, but his fame came from the Australian Gnome Convention. I was pleased to take the Leader of the Opposition there this year. Vale David Cook.
