G'day from Oz
Hi all,
A long time lurker, first time poster! I'm from sunny Queensland in Australia, where I work in healthcare. I've owned a Kindle 2 for a year or so now, and don't know how I lived without it! Books in Oz are SO expensive, but the electronic versions less so. I love reading anything about world history, especially european, as well as biographies. Looking forward to learning heaps more from this forum. Thanks for all the help so far! Gadaph |

G'day, Gadaph. Good to have your company. Quite a contingent here from Queensland now. Also, my own wee publishing house recently released a book called *Last Birds*, set in Queensland and by author Andrew Thelander, who lives not a million miles from you on the Sunshine Coast. Take a look at it in the bookstore section of our site (link below), and if it appeals, just drop me a line and I'll be happy to send you the Mobi version for your Kindle with our compliments. Best wishes. Neil -- ntmarrATbewrite.net (use the @ sign, of course)

Thanks, guys.
Actually, SneakySnake, I guess I'm down the road from you - Indooroopilly in the Western Suburbs of Brissie. It's good to see so many Aussies here! Best wishes, Gadaph |

Mm... yet more Aussies... and even more of those being QLD'ers ... must be something about this state. We're all wholesome God Anna fearing citizens.

Ooh. I have been to the gully of leeches. My Auntie used to live there opposite the golf course. There was a BIG shopping centre there.
