| 16th April 2009 Carrie & Peter | So...... - From: Convicts, Devils and a Big Mountain Summit .....when is the engagement and wedding? You are living the perfect idyllic life young lady. You always have but this is something out of a fictional novel. We are sooooo very happy for you. We miss you and wish you were here in London...as the weather is getting quite nice. When is Matt coming back to Canada with you so we can all meet him? Hi to Mom and Dad Code.....hope things are well with you too. Carrie & Peter (Old Proudfoot Lane neighbours) (((big hugs))) |
| 9th January 2009 Carrie & Peter | hhmmm...are those matching pyjama pants? - From: Barefoot Christmas hahaha...Trish..the pyjama pants look great on Matt...and you too! Darling you are living the perfect dream life....and we are all envious of you. Enjoy, Enjoy, Enjoy!!! Makes me want to book a ticket and come for a visit tomorrow. Don't tempt me. hahaha Just moved to the new house on Monday so we are in box hell for a few more days. The TV is connected and the internet is working, and the new shutters on the windows are installed...what else could I ask for in the first 4 days? I know what you mean about missing the white Canadian Christmas having spent Xmas 1984 in Sydney at Manly beach, but trust me if you were here you wouldn't miss it for long. Your blog is wonderful and I love reading it and looking at all the pictures. I spent my one New Year's Eve on an old ferry in the middle of the Sydney harbour with a Canadian from St Thomas who I met at the duty free store buying Kangaroo slippers for my brother...honest. Anyway it was one of the best New Year's Eve ever...the fireworks are truly amazing and sandals in January is pretty awesome. Keep up the good work at 3M and enjoy your fabulous life on the water.....we are all living vicariously through you and enjoying every minute of it with you. Cheers baby!! Carrie & Peter the old Proudfoot neighbours ((hugs)) |
| 24th October 2008 Carrie | Awesome restaurant....well it was when i was there - From: 27,118 th and 103 minutes http://www.doyles.com.au/12199+0+doyles-on-the-beach.htm Trish...I celebrated my 20th birthday at Doyles on the beach....had crab for dinner.....cant believe I found their website on the web...hahaha. It seems a bit pricey but I see they have 2 other locations that you might want to try. Ahhhh the memories.....you have taken me back kiddo....enjoy, you will have the memories forever, just like me!! Cheers........clm |
| 23rd October 2008 Carrie & Peter Moreno | well, well, well...Trish the Dish has been found - From: 27,118 th and 103 minutes Trish.....G'day mate!!! lol ok I had to type that. I have just skipped over all your blog from the beginning...apparently we were left off the "Trish has left the country" email almost a year ago. I have so much to say/type I can't get the comments down on the computer fast enough. I am reliving my 8 months I spent in Oz when I was a very young 19/20 in 84/85 (dont do the math)....it is just as I remember it. Drinking, drinking, and more drinking. AHhhhh what a life and you are living it full time. Somewhere I skipped over the part where you decided to stay...not surprised....it was hard for me to leave and I only had a part time job to keep me in alcohol. And who is Matt????? skoop....I need more skoop. Nice looking whoever he is. Is he really from Down Under? Ok...I have to go, dinner is soon to be on the table. Girl...you may be half way around the world, but you have not changed a bit....good for you!!! Live it up, life is too short and you deserve all the fun life has to offer. Hi to Mom and Dad Code if they are allowed to read this.....I was Trish's first official neighbour when she lost her property virginity in London...good old Proudfoot Lane.....and the boozy backyard parties....I distinctly remember one night not being able to figure out what all the laughing and goings on were coming from the patio below on a warm August night...."oh it's just Trish the dish and a few friends on the back deck" snickered my husband and rolled over back to sleep. The memories........just like it was yesterday. I have signed up to get notifications when you post new stuff on your blog, and I might add.....August 27th, it is time you added some new stuff!!! We are all dying to continue our vicarious life through you. Cheers Sheila!!! ((hugs)) Carrie & Peter xoxo |
| 6th August 2008 Michael Roach | Jurassic - From: A very close call I remember thinking that the vegetation at one point in the Great Ocean Trail (Victoria) was like that. These sort of trees must have survived in Oz whenever they last died out anywhere else. Also the shells coming out of the banks at the beaches were like nothing that I had ever seen. They brought back memories of school courses. Weird. |
| 17th June 2008 Kathy K | BARF - From: ....and Whale Sharks!!! Seriously, can you take it down a notch? I am getting diabetes from all your sugary fun times. |
| 23rd May 2008 Kathy | Imagine my surprise - From: 6 Months! Okay, first it is nice to see you publicly announce what we knew ten days before you left. Second, it is really sad for me to see your beach towel sitting on the sand and I can't put mine there beside it! It looks so warm and lovely! The spider thingie is too damn creepy. Keep it up and I will never visit you. Or at least I'll be the embarassing one in the net suit. heebie jeebies, baby. Lastly, if you keep saying things like "the canapes were fabulous" I'll have to come over there and smack you. Seriously, you sound out of my league. Miss you! Kath |
| 20th May 2008 rebecca shearer | I should have entered a betting pool!! - From: 6 Months! Of course we (Doug and I ) are not surprised in the least that you are staying on. We just hope you will stay long enough for us to come and visit you this time! We are so happy that you are doing so well "Down Under", we knew all along that this was the place for you. We are so glad that you are coming back for a visit....the boys miss aunty Trish and so do we. I (and lots of others) still want some good pics of Matt (sorry if you are reading, Matt, but it's essential!!). Talk soon, and yes, I'll get on the skype thing...promise! Love, Reebs :) |
| 19th March 2008 Kirk O | You sure you are working there... - From: Melbourne and The Great Ocean Road - Crystie's Visit - Part 5 of 5 Looks like a 4 month vacation.. not doing the same at my job ... mostly worried about recent 8 layoffs. 3M london needs to get some business going.. Nice to see you haven't gained any weight.. thought with all that vacation you would be like me after a cruise. Kirk. |
| 8th March 2008 rebecca | not jealous!! - From: Melbourne and The Great Ocean Road - Crystie's Visit - Part 5 of 5 So good to see your pics and hear all about your travels down under. Colin loves looking at the map and pictures.....he wants to see the koala's!! Duncan can't understand how you can be in these pictures....it's sunny and there's lots of water (unlike here where we have 30cms of the white stuff!!) It may be a rainy year down under, Code, but you'll be glad that you are missing this winter!! It doesn't seem to want to end! Ewan says "*&#%H*(@^&HDKHLAKS"....your guess is as good as mine! I'm sure he says, "we miss you and look forward to more updates, and to you coming home when you are good and ready!!" Keep happy and healthy, lots of love, Rebs and boys xo :) |
| 21st February 2008 Kathy | Alison - From: Australia Day! Crystie's Visit - Part 4 of 5 Do you really think Alison would let the two of you have all that fun without her? Honestly! She had to come along! Too beautiful to miss! |
| 21st February 2008 Kathy | What a great trip! - From: Hunter Valley and Newcastle - Crystie's Visit Part 2 of 5 Thanks for posting the pics, Trish, you got them up faster than Crystie could.... I heard all about your escapades and must say I was jealous. Looks fab! K |
| 17th January 2008 Kirk | You look Marvelous - From: Happy 2008! Hey Trish... I was able to view your travel Blog from home and not at work... go figure. Keep putting the photos on the Blog..they're wonderful, and start making a map of suggested things to do in Australia if I ever get to travel there ... like the sailboat cruises might be a great start. Glad to here you are fitting in, and it seems you have some wonderful friends to keep you company. Kirk.. |
| 15th January 2008 Auntie L | WOW What great photos! - From: Happy 2008! Hi there. The photos are amazing. Sure wish I could have been with you to bring in the New Year. The fireworks look good. Uncle Steve will be drueling when he sees all the boats in the harbour. I am noticing a lot of party photos and description but haven't heard much about the job.....are ya still showin' up for work??? Just kidding of course. Keep the blog info coming as lots of us are living the dream through it..ha ha. Take care, be safe and party on....Auntie L., Uncle Stevie, Buttsy and Lucille xoxoxo |
| 7th January 2008 Kath | Happy New Year! - From: It's the Silly Season!! Trish, it sounds like you are on holidays. Everything looks so beautiful, and that you counted on. There are fun things to do, and you counted on that as well. You are also surrounded by some fabulous people, and for that I am grateful. It's nice to hit your groove with people you have a blast with! Fun times! (oh and to be shallow, Cathy, your eyebrows are stunning. Looking good!) Cheers, k |
| 1st January 2008 melanie | Happy New Year - From: It's the Silly Season!! You're already in 2008, and I can't wait to hear the story about your New Year's Eve. Why do I have a feeling these pictures might be a little fuzzy....love to see them anyway. xoxo |
| 18th December 2007 Kath (the ORIGINAL Kathy) | I'm telling your Civic that you're cheating! - From: December? Christmas? Huh? Well, not many people get a sunburn at their Christmas Party. And the fact that you got a company car doesn't surprise me at all. I'm wondering when 3M is going to tell you your next job is oiling up models for the fire fighter calendar to assess the viscosity of the baby oil. Lucky lady, you! Glad you're having fun. Sounds like there is a bit of work in there. Somewhere between the surf lessons and the mountain biking and the smilie friends adopting you. Miss you, the blog is great, Kath (the original, but I CAN share) |
| 18th December 2007 The Vanderpost's | Hello From The Paciocco's Neighbours - From: December? Christmas? Huh? Hi Trisha, Mrs. Laurie sent us your blog, we are so happy for you! Glad that you are settling in and getting to experience all of the wonderful things that Australia has to offer. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and we look forward to sharing your experiences! Congratulations! Emma, Neil, Carlie and Haleigh |
| 17th December 2007 melanie | What about the wrinkles? - From: December? Christmas? Huh? I'm thinking that you're going to get wrinkles from all that laughing and smiling...not from the sun....although please continue to wear sunscreen and if you can't get Oil of Olay night cream there, let me know and I"ll send some. A CAR! Cha Ching girlie...ask and ye shall recieve! Merry Christmas, Love! |
| 17th December 2007 Cath the housemate | Ah ha! I found the legendary blog! - From: December? Christmas? Huh? Dear Trish's Candian 'village' friends & family, Trish is doing very well here in the land of Oz, sipping her strange cider & showing me up with her fancy cooking... If anyone would like to help the Australian Santa make sure Trish has something nice for her first Christmas do let me know at caf_999@hotmail.com. In the mean time we will do our best to keep her in the manner to which she has become accustom... million dollar views and lots & lots of laughing :) Merry Christmas to all of you, with love from the Australian 'Village' (especially Catherine xxx) |
| 22nd November 2007 Crystie | - From: Pictures at last...well, maybe. Yeah, yeah, we're all sooooo happy for you....it's freakin' -2 today with flurries......looking out the view from my "balcony" into the habitat of maple leaves that have overtaken my yard.....just kidding! Thanks for sharing the photos...it makes me happy seeing where you are! |
| 22nd November 2007 Auntie L | Howdee from your family - From: 2 Weeks Already?! Like Kathy, I picture the whole scene with you and thanks for the morning trip. I am working from home this morning as there is blowing snow/ice today. Bet you're missin' that. I love the blog. Uncle Stephen, me, Lucille and Butsy (for those reading they are dogs..) miss you already but couldn't be happier for you. I am having a little trouble setting up the webcam as my PC is showing disc space issues. Will let you know when we are good to go. I don't have to tell you to enjoy but I will remind you to be safe. Love ya forever, Auntie L. Uncle Steve and canines xoxoxo |
| 22nd November 2007 Aurora Di Salle | Hi Trish! - From: Pictures at last...well, maybe. Great photos....thanks for posting. Loving that you are so happy - the smile is infectious - even as we await the first snow storm of the year. If you get the chance when you do start your job at 3M say hi to our aussie friend in IATD - Damian Jones - from Nuno and I. Keep up the blogging - it's awesome ;-) Bye-bye. Aurora. |
| 21st November 2007 Trish Code | Cell Phone - From: 2 Weeks Already?! Well, I think you push 011 61 04 24 896 487 to reach my cell but I don't always have it on so maybe that's why it didn't work? It's a prepaid good until the end of November and I should have my work phone soon....not that I'll be allowed to text Canada! |
| 21st November 2007 melanie | Life is Good! - From: Pictures at last...well, maybe. This is so great, Trish! I'm so happy for you, and living vicariously, of course. ENJOY!!!!! Glad I won't miss your (v. happy) face! Thanks for putting this up! xoxo |
| 21st November 2007 Michael Roach | Wow! - From: Pictures at last...well, maybe. Okay, okay it is a beautiful as you describe and as beautiful as I remember. How can you be jealous of someone SOOOOO happy :-) Wow! I love the ferrys in Sydney. It is an amazing system. And you are 5 min from the local terminal. Enjoy your ... um ....life ...um...vacation..... I am certain that I speak for everybody we want to be there too. :-( |
| 16th November 2007 Kathy | your cell number is not complete - From: 2 Weeks Already?! I tried it from home just as you typed it. Is there another country code or something to add? Help! Kath |
| 16th November 2007 Kathy | I can feel your smile from here - From: 2 Weeks Already?! Hi Trish, Your blog is great. I can picture you setting up your little Aussie nest, and making it feel like home. In fact, despite your surroundings, there is probably less beach/ocean/fish/dive stuff around you than when you were in London! Glad to hear things are going well. We won't tell your Civic you are thinking of cheating on it with a convertable. I guess everyone whores around at some point. Love ya, kathy |
