chatterbug Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 Hey Fisho's Wife....We've been here in Brissy for over 3,5 years and it just gets better. Yes after the inevitable "honeymoon" phase it does taper off a bit and it does become a bit more realistic....but it is still a great place. The wife and our kid is currently back in SA ( and she is enjoying her time with the family thoroughly) but she once again told me how much she really appreciates our "life" and what we have over here. It's good to be gratefull.E.g. tonight was one of those great nights out, went to a Bronco's vs Bulldogs league game at Suncorp, gr8 stadium, gr8 weather, gr8 match, gr8 free (included in the price of you game ticket) and organised public transport to and from the game. The only downer for the night Bronco's lost by one point in the last 4 minutes of the game! Those damn Sydney B'dogs. Enough said?ProBUG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
