Hi, my name is Ronnie and my husband Bill and I are fulltime nomads traveling this amazing country. We are into our 5th year and love everything about this lifestyle.
 
Hi there,
I now live in the Blue Lake city of Mount Gambier, and the colour of it from November to March never ceases to amaze me. I have a Maltese/Shih Tzu who is always by my side, and I love him to bits. We belong to a dog walking group, and walk every afternoon. I am an avid card maker, and run a small forum for such like minded people, to display and talk about their cards and show new techniques. Love Op shops, and also try and contribute as much as I can to them.
Here is my Jacko.

Hello from the mid-north coast of NSW. My name is Ruth and I am an active firefighter, a long arm machine quilter and I have 8 horses of various sizes. The largest is a Shire standing at almost 18hh and the smallest is around 10 hh.
Both my husband and I are retired.
Catch you all later
Cheers
Ruth
 
Is this club for WA discount card holders only? Clearly not as I see posts from the Hunter Valley and mid north Coast NSW.
I am in Perth metro - 4kms from city centre. Only warm today, next week back to 40 degrees.

Hello all.
I am a newbie also. Born in Fiji and have lived in beautiful Australia since I was eighteen. It’s a great honour to be admitted into this club.
 
In the United States I believe that all fruit condiments are referred to as jelly. In Canada, jelly can be a fruit condiment but is clear (no fruit) or a firmer jelly ... think Aeroplane jelly. Jam contains pieces of fruit. Now that I have been in Australia for so long and lived in NZ for 11 years , I sometimes struggle with the correct word to use. Jam/jelly, thongs/jandals/flipflops, shopping trolley/trundler, Vivid/Texta/Felt ... to name a few.:ROFLMAO:
Absolute madness how the lingo changes depending on where you are :) I hope you're enjoying the warmer climate though!
