I know you can't reply here (but if you want my email is auntiemel at gmail dotcom) but hopefully you're still reading.
Uggs are shoes. Australian sheepskin shoes. Normally I'm not much of a shoe person (I usually have about 4 pair - one pair for each different need) but Uggs are supposed to be very, very comfortable. They have the sheep fleece on the inside, with fleece insoles and are designed to be worn barefoot. I'll spend money for comfort!
It sounds like Perth is still the choice for me. Brisbane looks a bit *too* crowded and *too* easily travelled to. It could just be the stress of working in the city, but right now remote sounds very good.
Dry? evem more like So. Cal. It wouldn't be green without irrigation - and is often involved in water disputes with the states up river. I think I could deal with that. Getting used to the maggot spitting blow flies might be a different story.....
What sounds good to me is a place up in the hills - preferably on a couple of acres - with a view of the ocean. Ahhh, I can dream...
Kings Cross was an accident (imagine the look on the cabby's face when I told him to drive me there!) but it was a real hoot when I realized where I was. I didn't get to sample much of the night life 'cause I had an early plane out, but I did waunder around and people watch.
