I felt proud because our tiny little island will be hosting the next olympics and it wasnt the ceremony as such, it was the fact we were very much a part of it and will be for the next one.

[QUOTE=Professional Princess;6755643]Can you imagine Gordon when we get a dog? I am keen to get a whippet but if I cant find a decent one (they seem to be bred very small here) then we will get a blue heeler.
Could get a greyhound instead We have and he loves to lounge all day.

You also have to develop a thick skin and not take anything that goes wrong as personal and we have tried to stay positive about stuff.
Some days have been bloody hard but yesterday when we had a picnic on South Beach, we had loads of cockatoos fly over our head and I remember thinking I wouldnt want to live anywhere else.

Mags I hope the finance goes through, I know if its meant to be then its meant to be but then I can start planning. Our tenancy expires on Oct 6th I think and settlement is 10th October so we need to make plans.
Shame you are not near me, you would be welcome for a few drinks.

I thought after how many years ?? you decided to go back after a few months
Well done on house purchase. May you and OH have many nice cous cous meals in it.
And just as many nights struggling to find the keyhole after a few too many drinkies.

You utter, utter cow!
I got to a certain line and my heart dropped.
Do not do that to me again!
Congrats on the house.
