Come down and live in the Whittlesea Shire in Melbourne. Specifically, the suburbs of South Morang and Mernda. It's on the edge of NW Melbourne. Kangaroos muck around in the undeveloped land.

A few months ago. I'm heading up to Whittlesea town. I'm in another traffic jam on Old Plenty Rd. I'm thinking the traffic's back up because it's a terrible road. But I found that it was because kangaroos bopping back and forth across the road!

Today is my 66th birthday. Later today some of my neighbors are giving me a small birthday paty. There will be cake and some other food. I hope there will be 66 candles on the cake. I don't know if I can blow out all of them with one breath.

I live in a tall Co-Op building. We have all kinds of parties throughout the year:
In the Summer there is the annual garden party. Then one for Thanksgiving and Christmas, and sometimes birthday parties.
