A blessing I would think xx

I have to admit Jamie's Italian was not great this time but my first visit it was fantastic ! I love to eat at Durty's Nelly's in Shafto Lane, we have never had a bad meal and the servings are amazing I really enjoyed The Lucky Shag for lunch a few weeks ago, it was my first time there I took Stacey to Crown Resort, we had Dinner in the Casino, it was $22.90 for a buffet with free soft drinks, tea and coffee, although not like the Buffet at The Atruim which is $75 a head xxxxx

Happy Birthday to an amazing Lady, I hope you enjoyed your special day xxxxxxx

well I would say if you have no kids and you like Freo, Brentwood and Melville would be the best, good luck

Hi Sarah they are all pretty good suburbs, although Brentwood and Melville would be closer to the City and just down the road from Fremantle, depends if you are looking for schools as well, but you can't go too wrong.

I know I just read it on Perthnow, so tragic indeed, thinking of their families, R I P xx

I'll stay quiet from now on Stacey but if you need any help I will be on FB, if you are here in Perth for Christmas you are welcome to come and spend it with my family, if you need accommodation I can help, take care of yourself xxxx

Well I haven't given much advice, but I have had 8 cousins come on WHV and most were lucky to stay and get 457 visa's and the Citizenship All I will say Stacey is this they all loved Byron Bay/Cairns they all said if you get stuck in Sydney it is hard to leave they all loved Melbourne, it is another City and I don't care what anyone says it is a fantastic city so much vibe, Southbank is amazing and lots of little quirky laneways Perth was lovely a bit quiet for them at their age all mid 20's that was 5 years ago so things have changed they all loved the Margaret River area My Cousin who is a specialist education assistant in a Secondary School in Dublin has June/July and August of for their Summer Holidays, her Partner quit his job to come with her to Oz for 12 weeks so they could get a feel to see if they wanted to do a WHV, they did that tour I think you mentioned from Sydney to Cairns and said it was amazing but to be honest there were some not so nice accommodation but they said the people they met and the experience was UNREAL. My Cousing was in Melbourne for 5 years and just moved back home to get married and see how things go, he met an Irish girl here lol My other Cousin and her partner have been in Darwin for 5 years now have a little girl and have no plans to go anywhere and the rest settled in Adelaide All I Know is Dome has become quiet in Perth, but if you need somewhere to stay I can help you with that and show you around a bit. That HELPX looks great, but I just want you to feel comfortable and enjoy your stay, in my opinion you are very brave I could never have done what you have done, keep going we are all here for you I might just come see you in Melbourne if you stay lol xxxxx

Stacey Williams, isn't to far from me, I can take you there and if you have days off pick you up and bring you back to see some of Perth, just let me know xx

I never said that all would have that kind of life!!! what I was saying is these are some of the issues of Australia I can not comment on the Uk as I don't live there, I live in Perth and have a teenager and see what is going on and hear what is going on and am aware what are major issues, obviously the life these Children/Teenagers are living will have an impact on them just like any First World Country !!!

Please enlighten me Maryrose !! x

I can't speak for the UK, but I can for Perth and and some other major Cities, as I have very close friends there, one of my good friends is High up in the Police Force, I have never mentioned that before but some of the stories they have told us would make your skin crawl, Suicide is High in Australia and Cutting has become an epidemic with young teenagers, the biggest problem now is Ice the new Drug of Australia and it is ruining lives it is a horrible drug , all we can do is inform our Children and always talk to them, so many teenagers are now on Anti-Depressants too, I believe Social Media has a lot to do with it IMO !!

Because the people with not the best English are willing to work Odd shifts for their money which probably isn't great, to be honest all the none English speaking people were I live are wonderful they treat me with respect as I do them, if they stuff up so be it, it ain't the end of the world, first world problems hey !!

It's okay Ali plenty more lunch/dinner dates for us to train you into screaming EAGLES lol xx

Apparently there has been a leak some how and it will be Sam Mitchell for Hawthorn, just what has been said not sure if it is true though.
