awesome but every day things I love here:-

being able to buy kilos of fresh prawns and not need to take out a second mortgage to do so

being able to sit outside at a cafe and not get frostbite

the sound of crickets (you so know you are not in Lancashire any more when you here those boys strike up at dusk)

1. Friendly people
2. Career not held back for not having a posh accent / being a member of the rugby club
3. Sunshine nearly every day
4. The Sunday Session (especially somewhere like the Boat in Mindarie Keys harbour or Little Creatures brewery on a Summer's afternoon)
5. Wife not having to work so our daughter can do more after-school stuff, I don't have to help with housework and weekends are free to enjoy. Except...
1/2 Going to the pub for a "quick one" after work most Fridays then ending up in Northbridge at midnight but feeling crap the next day

my husband would agree with the last one worzel. just this last friday I had to go and pick him up after 7 pints of Coopers Sparkling Jet Fuel, he couldn't have made his way home on his own!
