banjo48 928 Posted March 21, 2016 Report Share Posted March 21, 2016 Morton40 Welcome from me, I too left Nottm and blighty 28 years ago and now call Australia home, we have lived in Melbourne, Newcastle but Perth for many years, Ocean Reef, Mindarie, Jindalee to name a few suburbs. Our kids and grand kids still live in Currembine, Tapping and Mindarie, and our eldest son and four more grand kids and great grandson live in the UK still. We currently have been traveling full time in our RV for last 4 1/2 years but are currently back in WA in Mandurah. If my wife has anything to do with it we will be settling down again soon maybe, probably back in WA. Where are you ? Hope you enjoy the memories here and have meany to share.

Morton40 22 Posted March 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2016 Hi Banjo48 We have been very nomadic wandering from landing at Perth airport in Feb 76 and being stunned by heat and flies and customs officers wearing shorts :-). and then moving up to Darwin Harvey Bay Qld and even Canberra for a few years and now back in Roleystone. Our son Lives in Canberra with his wife and our one and only Grandchild. I am amazed at the memories that are floating around in my head from some of these topics Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PeverilPeril 3,281 Posted March 21, 2016 Report Share Posted March 21, 2016 Hi Mortton40 and welcome. Oztalgian - There must have been quite an exodus from Nottingham in 75/76 on the £10 ticket. 5 couples we knew (all cyclists) went. We were going to go but my application was turned down at the 11th hour due to medical probs. We visited our £10 pom friends a few years ago and they had all done very well for themselves. Perth, Adelaide and Canbera. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
