Enjoy your time together Regards No he is an 'original' Aussie, he first came over to Belli in 1995 to play cricket (although I didnt know him then!) and has been over a couple of times since, I met him in 2003 before we 1st went to Oz. We stayed with him for a wee while in April as my hubby was in The Mater Hosp in Newcastle having his appendix taken out and him and his family really looked after me and i got to see loads more of the area, basically cos I had to drive myself around!!
