G'day from Sunny Mornington, Australia
G'day all,
Hope this finds you all well.
As a newbie wannabe L/A, i have found this forum of invaluable interest. I am currently in the process of choosing my new abode and find with the prices over here in Aussie, I am forced to look offshore.
I have longed for some years to wake up on the water, to hear the gulls, to revel in the lifestyle that is boating.
Wish me luck.
Cheers.
Tony
