Hey everyone just stopping by to say 'Hi' I haven't forgotten any one of you since day 1 I joined here at Woofmang all the support you gave me is so much appreciated.

Much has been happening here good news first my Daughter is getting married in July in Phuket so it's off to Asia I go has been hard as the flights from Australia to Phuket are well over 1,600.00 not including accommodation or food ahhhh !!but it's all organised as the flights cost so much going to stay in Phuket 5 days than off to Saigon - Hanoi - Beijing - Shanghai -Hong Kong will be a mini adventure Very Happy


Bad is MS is getting me down so tired & dizzy most of the time thank goodness Autumn is here still 30c today feels like 40 to me !,but I am not going to focus on that too much, looking forward to the wedding .I told her she better stay married!!.

Also excited my 5 year quit is up in April 28 yay !!, time certainly has flown by.

Love to All Simone xx

Hi Simone. It's so great to hear from you and to hear such good news. I know you're very excited about the wedding and the fantastic trip. What a reason to visit and tour another part of the world. Bet you can't wait for the time to pass.

Take care and stay in touch.

Hi to everyone ! well the wedding was amazing the trip to Phuket,Vietnam-Beijing-Chengdu & Hong Kong the most amazing month of my life...all that annoyed me was even cab drivers smoked!..gave me a sore throat from so many smokers ...


The wedding was like a fairytale stunning my baby girl looked like a litttle tiny fairy beautiful as I've ever seen her.

What an adventure as we had no tour guise just winged every place off the plane to the hotel than off to find the local supermarket to get water & food.

I must say the tourist advertisement should mention not a single soul speaks English.......unless you go on a pre-booked tour .

I am still adjusting to being home I loved the hustle & bustle & sheer vibrancy of Asia .Australia is sooooooo quite but than again there's no place like home.

Love to All xoxoxo
