Re: Lancashire Meet, Part 2. 2nd June 2007
Christ too many things to answer there man lol. I am going to have a look over at Brissy in or around Nov I think. I am missing everyone over there and I will miss the people that are going. We have to stay here for the moment though as lad has school and he is in the last years of it now and i don't want to mess him around with that.
Hubby and lad didn't like Brissy. I wasn't too keen either. Having said that we didn't get the best introduction of it. My sister went to the UK so we missed out on her showing us around. Were going to look at it again though.
So your going to Sydney eh!!! Hmmm... nice one. they will need your talents around there. You'll make a killing.
Have the best last meet. I know you will lol
hugs Lace xx

We have weighed up the evidence and Brisbane felt like a bit of a booby prize when we worked out that we would have to work our arses off in Sydney to get to the life we are at in the UK.
Melbourne has the vibe, the mountains for ski ing and the beaches that Brissie doesnt and ive been told off several people with me in agreement that it reminds them of manchester or vice versa in the way it has new and old buildings, trams and plenty of cool things going on.
We will see!
