About Me

My photo
Perth/Fremantle, Western Australia, Australia
An independent, working woman, I live in a riverside suburb close to both Fremantle and Perth. Having lived in Perth for over thirty years it's obvious that I love the place, though there are still things that irritate and make me squirm with embarrassment. Occasionally they will make an appearance; but generally speaking this is a pretty good place to live.

Lots happening....but

It's been a while since I posted anything. The reason, my camera decided to die. So no photos with this post.

I had a blast from the past a fortnight ago when visitors from overseas called in to see me. It gave me a chance to act as an advise guide through Perth and Fremantle.

Their main reactions, or at least those they were prepared to share with me were:

- the people here were friendly, much friendlier than those from large cities in England.
- its expensive, very expensive, especially as our dollar is currently so strong.
- King's Park was top of the favourites list.
- Fremantle was a great city to visit, lots of interesting things to see.
- Perth has a massive urban sprawl, not all of it very attractive.

- Kalamunda, (a small town nestled in the hills behind Perth) had a lovely atmosphere.
