Buying our house

We decided that we had had enough of renting and started looking for a house to buy. Rach fell in love with a house near town, it's in a quiet cul-de-sac, with a nice sized garden and it's next to a reserve. We put an offer in, which has been accepted, so we're just waiting on a settlement date. The agent for our rental property have managed to get a couple in to take over the rent for us, so at least it won't be empty.

Making friends



Nige came home from work with a phone number....."Hmmmmmmmmm" I thought! It turns out that he's been to a house carrying out repairs on air conditioning and the family living there have just moved to Port from Perth. They have 2 children of a similar age to ours, so we went round to all meet them on. They're Will, Mel, Jakob and Charlie. Will's originally from the UK and Mel from Victoria. The kids had a lovely time playing and we had a good old chat. The kids and I are going to a play group in town with Mel, Jakob and Charlie.


We've had lots of get togethers with Will and Mel and have become good friends.
