Tracy (TubularBelle) with partner Michael, then 28 and Shih Tzu Wilbur, note the bow tie, then 13, passed away 3 years ago. Taken in 2000, just 3 months after Michael and I met, hence him not being included in the Family Portrait. Also because we met in Sept and the Portrait was meant to be taken in July to commemorate my 40th birthday but the night before the sitting, my son Craig had gone on an all night bender and woke up looking like a walrus so I cancelled and it took me 6 months to recover from the anger enough to book another sitting. My boys were supposed to pay for it too, not a cent, cost me over $1,000. But it's a memory!!
Good to see so many people have had a look in here already, I hope you are all posting pictures. Plop yourselves down in front of all your MO record covers and posters etc. And include some details about yourselves. Where you live and work, family, hobbies, go for it.
I live in the Adelaide Hills of South Australia in a lovely place called Belair, we have a very downmarket house in a very upmarket area, paid $160,000 for it 4 years ago, now worth twice that amount. The average house here costs half a million dollars. It is a one story fibro house but our block is so steep that our back deck sits 12 feet off the ground and overlooks a valley with huge gum trees and we can see koalas and possums and kookaburras and rosellas. No kangaroos, you have to go to the National Park to see them which is only 1 1/2 kms away, they don't roam the streets like some American sitcoms think. We get some truly spectacular sunsets, but it can get very cold here at night. Our bedroom is high up so we have complete privacy with no curtains and lay in bed and watch the rain and lightning and the trees and the moon, we are very very happy here. Freezing, but happy!
I don't work at the moment, use to glaze peanuts and almonds, and Michael is a furniture removalist/truck driver. He does country runs so drives 80% of the time and is away 100 hours a week so I get plenty of time to enjoy the beauty of this place and listen to Mike. My partner is NOT a fan and can get quite jealous so I don't talk about Mike much when he is at home.
Ciao,
Tracy.

I hate getting up early. I didn't even realise there were two 6 o'clocks in one day!
