linda@no9 Posted October 2, 2012 Report Share Posted October 2, 2012 I walked all the way to Hillarys harbour yesterday for a picnic with my girls, then that "have I closed the garage door" question popped right on in there. As bad as "have I left the iron on?" Walked all the way back, yes, door closed, so walked back to beach. Hate that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

portlaunay Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 Our fantastic next door neighbours are moving to Laos. They've been superb company, great friends and we've virtually lived in each others houses over the past year. Very sorry to see them go. But on the up side, free accommodation in Laos when we go!

portlaunay Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 ..... I officially have a university student living in the house ... my daughter enrolled at UWA today What's she doing? I hear UWA is great. I thought it was a public school when I first saw it; Winthrop hall is fantastic with it's crisp lines, those long, narrow, deeply recessed windows and the reflection pool. I hope she enjoys her time there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was a public school when I first saw it; Winthrop hall is fantastic with it's crisp lines, those long, narrow, deeply recessed windows and the reflection pool. I hope she enjoys her time there. She was thrilled to get a first round offer from them. She's doing double BA major in English and Cultural studies and French - doesn't have to lock these in until next year. It's probably the most prestegious of the Uni's because it's the oldest, but Murdoch and Curtin have great reps too, according to my daughter ECU not so much - but it depends on the course you're doing, the nursing students have always been great. My daughters school held their year 12 graduation at Winthrop hall it really is the most beautiful place - UWA is very picturesque. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

portlaunay Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 Great opportunity - will there be a few tears? Both my children love them and my daughter drew them a lovely picture today so there may be some tears. There may be some uncomfortable man hugging too! Looking forward to a trip to Laos in a few months though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Centrelink amazed me by being so quick and efficient! Not at all the impression you get from the media... Of I go this week to see what discounts I can get everywhere!
