Hi nyx,
A big Aussie welcome to Susan's family. Don't believe everything you hear about us. It's not true. We are a very intelligent, civilised, naturalised, vaccinated loving race of people on this side of the Creek. I'm sure Cindy James will back me up on that, and she hails from Australia's whine wine capital, Adelaide. I'll let her deal with JamieD when she pops in. Probably out treading some grapes right now.
You appear to have a well balanced approach to life which for the journey you are on, is a credit to you. I'm sure you'll enjoy the opportunities and dreams that await you.
As you wonder round here, you'll discover a mountain of information, resources and friendships waiting for you. So jump right in and join the fun. I look forward to hearing more about you in time to come, but in the meantime, be safe, well and happy.
Lotsa huggs
Catherine
