A glitch had to happen
Everything had been going so well it must have been inevitable that we’d get a couple of hiccoughs along the way.
Juliet and Dude both managed to fall ill within two days of arriving in Kalgoorlie. Nothing serious, but we’ve made the doctor’s acquaintance.
Our furniture was meant to arrive today (Monday) but it hasn’t. The removal company doesn’t know where our container is! They think it might be in Adelaide. There was a train derailment between Kalgoorlie and Perth which disrupted all rail traffic.
We now expect the furniture to come on Thursday. Our neighbors have helped out with some essentials in the meantime.
The kids have settled in well at school. Hannans Primary has 430 students and is within easy walking distance. I’m pleased Kathleen was able to start there, rather than go to a high school with over 1000 students. Year levels are different between WA and Victoria.
Kathleen and Dude say hello to Mrs Rampling, Mrs Clapperton, Mr Dwyer and Mr Holden and everyone at Porepunkah.

G’day
Sorry to hear about the furniture. Great you have all settled in (but not about sick). Good to hear the Dude and Kathleen have settled in well at school. Miss them here at porepunkah and we all send our love and best wishes.
