Oh I thought you were living up with the

Oh well, I guess it's the ongoing fascination
people have about living next to lots of
people. Personally, I don't like it, but to get
proper work, you need to live somewhere
big & can find plenty of work.
What the Govt. fail to mention is that a lot of
other people are looking for work in that area
& in a way a competition is being done, in
order to pick the most suitable! Some of the
Job agencies do care, but it's just question of
finding it, with all the other's out there to just
give them work! :-(

Well Tasmania is such a small place (it's that
what looks like an island at the bottom of the
mainland of Australia - just down below
Victoria, to which where I'am). But we get
some funny weather, but nothing as odd as
Snow falling on our Alps on Christmas Day
(in summer). It gets to warm in Victoria!
