I like your butter knife approach.


I once threatened a small child with heart removal with soup spoon. It was the only thing that stopped him bullying my daughter. I'm all for speaking the same language as the perp.

No seriously, it's all good - bloody hard work getting used to the manana attitude but you get there and actually start to appreciate it

So chuffed you both got your visas and if we ever cross paths - must have that drink sometime!
That would be nice to have a few beers

We initially wanted Melbourne or Sydney but could only get sponsorship for WA.

Still, we havent been to WA before and are prepared to give it a fair go, besides Gobbyjock is there and a few others that I have already met plus some I cant wait to meet, it should be all good.

Hey, no worries Sam...Perth is - to coin a phrase used by a certain A man - Flippin marvelous! No really, woulda been my choice but was dragged screaming and kicking to Brisvegas!

It's gorgeous there - yet to meet an Aussie that disagrees! Indian Ocean beaches? How will you cope!

I hope we can get a rental sorted fairly quickly. We initially were looking for Subi or West Leederville but Warnbro and surrounding areas seem nice - we shall see what happens.

I still havent got over the woman at the gym who stood chatting to me stark naked, with one leg raised high on a step.

She had a fanny like a letterbox.

I realise that some people enjoy nudity and there really is nothing wrong with it, but personaly it isn't for me.

Especially when one leg is cocked up high on a step and you can see 'liver bits' hanging out like lettuce in a bap.
