Nikkis2000 Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 IKNWC but my Mother in Law landed in Perth this morning and I am sooooooooooo jealous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
portlaunay Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 IKNWC but I hate packing. You get a fair way into it and think "we'll this ain't so bad, maybe we can do this in a weekend" and then there's another four days worth of boxes you have to mark 'miscellaneous-garage' because sentimentality is more powerful than dark matter.

Guest guest9824 Posted April 29, 2013 Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 IKNWC.... But I'm not feeling the love for Tom Cruise playing Jack Reacher in the new movie. Dont get me wrong i like Tommy boy, but having read the Lee Child books, I don't think he is a suitable candidate, would rather see someone more edgy playing the part like Tom Hardy......niceeeeee! Just sayin..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda@no9 Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 My son has his final uni exams over the next 7 days. 4 to be exact. He then, fingers crossed, will be a fully qualified Geologist and make Perth his new home. Jobs depending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda@no9 Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 IKNWWC! But my son is currently 2 hours into his geology engineering exam in Plymouth right now. I have everything crossed for him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redsquare Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 IKNWC but... Whenever I see a post titled "Any couples aged such in such an area" I can't help thinking I've stumbled on a swingers site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
portlaunay Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 IKNWC but I've just realised I'm not 21 any more. Even my hair aches. We thought we'd start the move today, minus the army of friends. "Let's get one load done." We say. 4 long, hot, dry hours it took to load the truck. 4 hours! 3 hours to unload! My shoulders feel dislocated and I'm scared to sleep in case I can't move in the morning. At least the new house has a bath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikkis2000 Posted May 20, 2013 Report Share Posted May 20, 2013 IKNWC but I think I've fallen in love with Greenmount. We stayed with some friends there when we were over in Nov (didn't know it was Greenmount at the time) and was taken with the size of properties, large plots and mature gardens. Having been looking at commutable suburbs for some time I was gradually coming to the conclusion that I like the more inland areas. I happened to look up Greenmount on Real Estate.com, realised it was where we stayed and found some lovely houses that we might stand a chance of affording. Now I REALLY want that Visa to come through Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

portlaunay Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 Reviving this thread because..... IKNWC but if all goes to plan, this time in six months will be my last day in a job I hate!! Cannot wait to the day I can hand in my notice and watch the looks on their faces! I was soooo looking forward to leaving my UK job but when I reflect on the day I resigned it wasn't as satisfying as I thought it would be. I didn't expect a scene but I did experience some bitterness and resentment and I realised any thoughts that weren't focussed on the journey ahead were wasted.

portlaunay Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 IKNWC but I took a day off today and bought a new toaster in the Myer sale, some coffee machine decalcifier, four new bath towels, some bathroom scales (cos mrs portlaunay is doing something called Lite n Easy!) and some socks.

portlaunay Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 IKNWC but this week was a great week. Son worked really hard on guitar practice and sounded awesome for all the effort, also had a tennis tournament this morning and really enjoyed himself, (4 wins, 2 draws, 1 loss). Daughter has been working hard at gymnastics and has been advised to begin competition training (she's 6), proud dad. I bought a picket fence from the architectural salvage yard for $70 so that'll keep the dog off the veggies. In GT5 I just did a 6.19 lap of the Nordschleife in my Mazda 787B. All I need now is a Lions win.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
