Have a great year,

Just a quick update.

We've just bought a house here which we think is wonderful for us. It's a good size and we have hills right behind us and close to the sea with a view from around the corner. May post a few pictures if I get time.

I am still working and OH is still training for her new occupation. Work and her training has made it a bit tiring at times but should pay dividends in the long run. Kids are happy but we've all found it colder than we thought. Trust us to have our first winter that is the coldest for thirteen years! The rain is needed and surely we have seen it. Rarely though, do we not see the sun in some fashion - different to the NW in the UK.

We have various family coming for definite from beginning October to early January!

Spring and summer just around the corner!

And hopefully another 13 years before the next coldest winter.

Congrats on the house purchase, must feel wonderful to finally feel settled in your own home. Pics would be great.

Hope you have more than enough space for all your visitors!

We'll be arriving shortly.

Take care.

Well done!

Pics would be good.

Hi Cooler,

Good to read that you're all sorted . I remember roughly a year ago you'd given up your job and was rotating you and your family's accomodation around family and friends. Your situation then seemed almost desparate in those days. And now look where you are!!

Well done!

Cheers Sally and Alfresco - hmm, just have to do it another night now!

Yes paulry, moving into MIL's for a while which is a modern two-up, two-down with SIL there and OH, me and four kids was kinda interesting

I have to say that it's been worth it and we've got a lot of good friends. I have some good mates at work and the same outside. What I do like here is that you can have a mate who's a doctor and another who's a gardener and they're all treated the same. If they're Aussies, I get my retaliation in first

SA is great, but they do like their bread here, they're int'a bred


Cheers,
Cooler

But what made it all the more interesting, was meeting lil ole me! lol
