Haven't been here for a while.........
 
..so thought I'd drop in to say hello, and see how people are doing :)

We've been here in Melbourne for 4 years and 6 months, and feel so at home here, but still get such a kick out it.
I'm nursing still 4 days a week, and also do wedding/photography for extra money.
Carl is a chess coach in schools, and is like a pig-in-muck :)

Living in a great suburb, and with great friends and lifestyle.

Life is indeed good.

So, what about the rest of you who have been here for a while?

Welcome back :)

Changed schools, homes and jobs. Making full use of the opportunities others call obstacles with life downunder.

I'm a coffee addict ;)

4 years 8 months for us Cas.
Could be 4 months and 8 days as it still feels fresh.

We came, we saw.....and we said thanks Australia. :thumbup:
What did we do to deserve this?

More like what did Aus do to desrve you guys ;)

Three years and 7 months for us, seems like yesterday but also seems like we've been here forever - how does that work:blink: Life's good, certain health issues that are ongoing but hey, that's life.

Hi guys :)
That's exactly what we feel..everything seems so fresh, and yet so familiar..so home.
Coffee addict too...to real coffee, not that bitter crap used to put up with :D

..and yes..a BIG thanks :)

Hi Weirdstone - still taking fantastic photos, I see. :)

I probably wasn't even in Oz last time we talked on here and ganged up on the tattoo haters. Been here since 2 May 2008. Happy. Working. Happy despite working. :lol: One year update in the update thingy.
