Default Farewell photos from me

Hi there,

Well it's nearly time to go. The packers are in tomorrow and I'am busy typing out new CV's (or suppse to be) and listening to Radio One over the internet (got a lot of catching up to do music wise, never heard of half the songs being played! )

Not sure how strick British customs are when it comes to beinging bikes etc into the UK so busy cleaning thoses too!!

The computer will be packed away on Thursday so I thought I would leave you with some photos I've taken since being here.

Enjoy, this is The Swan Bells, only $6 to go inside, and wonderful views from the top.

The Vines (North of Ellenbrook) is full of Kangeroos, they lounge around all over the golf course. So anyone who doesn't want to see them in the zoo take a drive up there!!

All your pictures look wonderful!

Are you sure you really want to leave that place?

Good luck!

It seems slightly more sad now it's nearer but not sad enough to stay.

Got a new camera so will also put it to use in the UK!!

A typical scene when you have a BBQ !!!!!!!

No Koalas in WA but they have a place called The Mazes (if you can stand the mozzies!) where they let people into the Koala enclosure every hour for 15 minutes. It's nice to see them so close.

ahhhh, lovely

I know. When we first arrived here I went to a Poms In Perth meeting at Kings Park, back in 2003 on Easter Sunday. Made myself talk to others and met some nice people. It is hard to do if you're not that kind of person, I am so it wasn't that bad!!
