where are ya?

[ChrisM]

North Eastern Adelaide.

I have a pretty good local post office and an exchange jewellers close by. They are ok but arrogant and rude at times.

Had one funployee try and tell me that round 50c was made in 1986 (only 20 years too late!)

I must be nearby. I have the same Adelaide Exchange closeby and agree they are not very friendly and since they moved shop all the pre-decimal coins have gone!

I used to live in Murrumbateman, 15k south of Yass (my old Username).  I've sold both properties there and bought one down Bateman Bay way on the South Coast.  I still work and live in Canberra, but spend Wed, Fri, Sat and Sun nights there. Its only a 2 hour commute.

Why Wednesday?  I have to let the cat out. True!  My cat was bought up on 8 acres of grassland at Murrumbateman.  She is 17 years old and was ok when we first moved into a Canberra unit.  We subsequently changed units, and she did not like it one little bit! Crapped and peed everywhere; something that she had never done before.  We took her down the coast, and she is back using her litter tray.  I think she was trying (very successfully) to tell us where she wants to retire to!

Hi Graham
I hope that you guys are OK in the fires down your way (if you are down in the bay) Cheers Robbie

I was asked to leave once after i spent too long looking at coins lol
After shunning them for a while i thought id give it another go and now find the one at Glenelg alright. Its taken me a while of sucking up but now the ladies are more than pleasant. Grading and prices are all over the place, usually way over graded and priced but sometimes good. This was my puchase there late last week http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330851975676

[keldaw]

No problems with fires here (yet!).  The Kings Highway has been closed for periods between Bungedore and Braidwood.  You can stil get here from Canberra, but its a considerably longer side trip.  I also understand there is (was) sections of the Prince Highway (north) that was experiencing fire problems.  

If we were to have problems, we'd have to go south.  That brings us closer to Melbourne. I think I'd rather face the fires LOL.  I could probably stay with Goldeseeker.  He lives in my old stomping grounds. LOL.
