Another Aussie band for Sarah’s music challenge today because I can. I loved the eighties, we had some great Australian bands and I was lucky enough to see quite a few of them including Australian Crawl. You might not be able to follow the words, James Reyne was often a bit hard to follow but they are catchy songs and remind me of a time when the world seemed happier and less complicated than it is today. At least to me, it did.
Born in England in 1957 my family came to Australia in 1966. I grew up in Adelaide, South Australia, where I met and married my husband David. We came together over a mutual love of trains. Both of us worked for the railways for many years, his job was with Australian National Railways, while I spent 12 years working for the STA, later TransAdelaide the Adelaide city transit system. After leaving that job I worked in hospitality until 2008.
We moved to Tasmania in 2002 to live in the beautiful Huon Valley. David passed away in 2015 and I'm here on my own now but I have Cindy the dog and Polly the cat to keep me company.
I currently co-write two Wordpress blogswith my sister Naomi. Our doll blog "Dolls, Dolls, Dolls", and a "Our Other Blog" which is about everything else but with a focus on photographs and places in Tasmania.
