Oh really? Wow, that's cool!

Oh, and just so you know, It's KBABZ, not Kabaz, KBABS or worst of all, krabs. I like to keep my username simply complicated! I've got a story that takes place mainly in NZ and Australia, but it's so long I won't tell it here. Why'd you go to Oz? Was it not orange enough here?

A lot of Australians here it seems! Sometimes we forget that there is another predominantly English-speaking continent out there "down under" besides the predominantly English-speaking North America! (That would account for why WP has more Australians than say Czechs.)

larsen, I swear you have this automated response system every time someone enters... not picking on you or anything just playing

No, I just say that because I don't have any questions for anyone. If they introduce themselves, I say their name. If they fascinate me, I ask them more by sending them a PM or responding in that thread directly.

Hi Rachel. I have fond memories of Ballarat. Though originally from Brisbane, we lived in Bacchus Marsh for around 7 years before moving to England. We were about a half hour's drive from Ballarat. We have 3 children, all AS, doing very well.

Great to have you with us. Welcome to WP

Whenever a female says "Hi from down under" I get a VERY rude image in my head. :oops:

Sorry, I dunno why but I had to mention that.

You're welcome!

I am a very interesting person. If you'd like to get to know me, please send me a PM. I'm more likely to be talkative if I talk privately.
