| A LITTLE ABOUT ME |
I WAS BORN IN SYDNEY AUSTRALIA IN 1939..(NOW YOU KNOW HOW OLD I AM ). AT THE AGE OF 8 YEARS MY PARENTS ALONG WITH MY YOUNGER BROTHER, SHIFTED TO A FARM ON THE NORTH COAST OF NEW SOUTH WALES.(CASINO) THERE ..WE GREW UP. I WENT TO A LITTLE ONE TEACHER SCHOOL IN THE COUNTRY UNTIL MOVING ON TO HIGH SCHOOL . LEAVING HIGH SCHOOL I WORKED AND BECAME A NURSE BEFORE MARRYING IN 1961 I HAVE RESIDED IN REDCLIFFE, QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA FOR THE PAST 33 YEARS. I HAVE 3 ADULT SONS AND 2 WONDERFUL GRANDCHILDREN. NOW RETIRED, MY LIFE REVOLVES AROUND MY FAMILY , FRIENDS AND MY COMPUTER ALONG WITH ALL MY ICQ CHAT FRIENDS. WHAT BETTER PLACE IS THERE TO BE, THAN HERE IN REDCLIFFE? IT IS ABOUT 2O KLMS (10 MILES) FROM BRISBANE, THE CAPITAL OF QUEENSLAND. REDCLIFFE IS A PENINSULA, SUROUNDED BY MORETON BAY WATERS. FROM THE WATERFRONT YOU CAST YOUR EYES SOUTH AND SEE BRISBANE IN THE DISTANCE. THEN TO THE WEST YOU SEE THE MAJESTIC GLASS HOUSE MOUNTAINS. |

IT IS A VERY LAID BACK CITY WITH A "CASUAL" LIFE STYLE. B.B.Q.'s ARE VERY POPULAR ALL THE YEAR ROUND, BE IT AT HOME OR ALONG THE WATER FRONT. OUR GREAT CLIMATE SUPPORTS OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES ALL YEAR ROUND. |

| JUST A LITTLE MORE ABOUT QUEENSLAND. WE ARE KNOWN AS THE SUNSHINE STATE OF AUSTRALIA. "BEAUTIFUL ONE DAY, PERFECT THE NEXT" IS OUR STATE SLOGAN. THE POPULATION IS AROUND 3.7 MILLION. NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE FOR THE SIZE OF THE STATE. MOST OF US LIVE ON THE EASTERN COASTLINE. INLAND, WE HAVE OUR WONDERFUL FARMERS WHO WORK THE LAND UNDER EXTREME DIFFICULTIES, ON LARGE FARMING PROPERTIES, BE IT WITH CATTLE , SHEEP OR THE VEGIES AND FRUIT WE JUST TAKE FOR GRANTED ON A DAILY BASIS. THESE PEOPLE WORK FROM DAYLIGHT TO DARK. HAVING BEEN A FARMER'S DAUGHTER, I DO UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY ENDURE TO EARN A LIVING. WHICH IN TURN, BENEFITS THE ENTIRE COUNTRY AS A WHOLE. WELL... SO MUCH FOR MY BRAGGING! WE ALL LOVE OUR HOME AND HOMELAND AND THAT IS HOW IT SHOULD BE. THANK YOU FOR VIEWING MY FIRST ATTEMPT AT PAGEMAKING. Toods |
