I'm not sure what you're talking about regarding story, perhaps it was my small bio. I am interested in writing and have been ia member of the Fellowship of Australian Writers [FAW] for many years. Written a few poems and short stories and my bio. which I hope to put into print later this year. Growing up in the 40s/50s was an interesting time, editing is what bores me, reading and re-reading and adding things that I'd forgotten to put in.
To the old MC, why do you not allow yourself to answer a question?
Should you ever find yourself in Cornwall, go to the `seaside resorts` in October and you will find plenty of yellow pages still in the streets because 25/30% of homes have been sold to anyone with the cash so buy them.
It seems to me that whilst everyone complains about 2nd/holiday home owners it was the prevoius owner, perhaps a Cornish person, who sold it, no doubt at a bloody good profit.
PS. Anyone moving to an English shire who wants to sell their home leave their phone number in the Penwith Pirate.
We live on the far south coast of NSW, about 40 minutes from the NSW / Victorian border. Most of hubby's family, who live north of Sydney have no idea of this area. It amazes me sometimes, I know it's a huge country, but being family you'd think they would make some effort to have an idea of other parts of their state, that members of their family live. We lived in Melbourne for many years and only hubby's mum visited, the rest of the family think that Melbourne is the pits!! they've never been there. It's this Sydney V Melbourne rivalry thing.
