Re: New member/First post.

Hi Robyn,

Welcome to the list. We have another member on the east coast of NSW

near Merimbula and Bega - probably south of you. Her name is

Ford and she lost her husband to MSA in August.

Take care, Bill Werre

-Thanks for the welcome Bill, I expect I will be a regular visitor

to the list over the next few years, so it's really important to

feel welcome. Bega is well south of Sydney,although I have never

been there, I believe it would be about three hundred klms from the

Central Coast where we live ( which is 112klms north of Sydney ).I

hope is coping with her loss.

Robyn,

You know us Yanks, when you said central coast of NSW - I thought of

Sydney as being north - we forget how big NSW is. I flew on Hazelton

Airlines from Sydney to Merimbula which is right on the coast and it was

about an hour with an intermediate stop. Then later I flew north to

Gold Coast near Brisbane (Queensland) to see Aussie Anne (not Aussie Ann

Merimbula is a small resort area and the country there is beautiful as

was the flight down and back The Gold Coast is more of a beach resort

area much like Atlantic City area in the USA. However the people in

both areas were much friendlier than many people these days in the USA

(generally). Everyone you meet even on the street walking around said

" G'Day " . I was also lucky that I had local people in both areas with

me most of the time.

Anne and introduced me to strine a few years ago. While I was

there I went to 3 parties and and learned about XXXX and Eskies. I did

note that we use charcoal for cookouts or barbies in the USA and they

all used wood in Oz. The only thing on TV was aerial pingpong at

that time I learned a little about Rugby too, but not enough to know

what was going on. Since I was there in May, I only got a brief intro

to the Australian salute but did learn that Aussies take driving rules

seriously as I was only there two weeks and had to blow in the bag once

Of course every car through there that day was stopped (at about 2 PM).

Anyhow, that is enough of an earbash for now.

Take care, Bill Werre

Robyn,

I think you made Bill Werre day ) He think's he learn how you Aussie talk

from Aussie Annie #1 & when they we're both on here. I don't know

about , but Aussie Annie #1 would love to give Bill a bad time and

completely mix him up with the way she talked Aussie with 1/2 English. She

wanted Bill to think he knew how to talk like you Aussie when he got there.

Little did he know Aussie Annie#1 was trying to mix him up. He may of been a

little mixed up before that , but he won't tell you that. Anyway if he gives

you a hard time, just give it back, he loves it.
