Greetings! Newbie from down under

[Paddy G]

G'day mates. Sorry about that, I can't keep up the accent. I'm actually from up North (Manchester) currently enjoying the delights of Australia. Hope to learn from you guys and make that first important breakthrough.

Hello and welcome. Aussie in Kiwi clothes over here * waves *. I lived for a year in Adelaide too, great city, loved it.

Thanks for the welcome guys. I'll spend more time discovering the site over the weekend.

 

[Robinne Weiss]

Welcome to the Colony! Good to have more of us on this side of the equator! I'm an American permanently transplanted to New Zealand. What do you write?

 

[Paddy G]

Hi Robinne, I'd like to say humour but my kids say I specialise in the 'Grumpy Old Man Genre'.

 

[KateESal]

Hi there Paddy G!

There's probably a market for Grumpy Old Man Genre, there are plenty out there

 

[Eva Ulian]

Hello Paddy, nice to meet you- I've spent quite a bit of my life in Manchester.

Hey Paddy. A Mancunian living in Oz with a name like yours. Are you sure you are not a confused Irishman?
Whatever, welcome to here.

 

[Webbwalker]

Welcome Paddy! I live about 40 minutes from Manchester, and very near a Botany Bay - which is the closest I've ever got to Australia. Enjoy the colony.
