Today .....
 
Carl and I become Australian Citizens :thumbsup:

We are doing it because we love the country, it is our home, and we feel more settled and have more loyalty and respect for the place than we ever had in the UK for many years.

My sister is here for a visit, and so she will come, along with our best friends - a couple we met just over a year ago.

I'm very happy :)

Did they really remove your brain and insert a pie? Can you choose the flavour? They do some really nice garlic prawn ones at a bakery near us.

Very many congratulations :thumbsup:
