[Leica] Perth = Paradise

[kiklaas@iinet.net.au]

I think I should qualify my statement about Perth being paradise:

LOTS of space - population about 1 million (1.8 mill in the whole State)

Sun eight months of the year (great convertible country - Jeep territory - 
I own one)

Where else can you live 4 minutes from work in the city and be able to 
afford it.  Commuting time per day - 20 minutes return - plenty time left 
to play with Leica.

Great easy going lifestyle - everything I do or need to do is within a 
cyclying radius.

Great people.

Oz is great - Perth is really special - be sure to call in some time.

I hope to catch up with some of you when I travel.  (Went to USA in 99
LA and San Fran - loved San Fran)
