Cool photos Steve! You're uploading the highest res photos though. You should get them down to like 300x300 size - these are 10x that big! They're 3 MB a piece...

Neil:

"It hasn't helped me 'get a job' but I've nevertheless done that now over c.150 scores."

Congratulations. That is quite an accomplishment and shows great dedication. My situation is a bit different - I have a day job, a house, spouse, grown children and am reasonably secure. But you know what I dream about? Not having all the stuff, but able to live simply - no car, no lawn to cut, plumbing to fix etc. All my ideas on a thumb-drive and a laptop PC - I could live anywhere, compose and connect. As it is I've gotta put in 40 hours a week plus commuting and at the end of the day I would not be able to afford my house if I had to buy it over again. And California is expensive and spread out.

I'm not complaining exactly, but from where I sit there is a great virtue in simplicity and living light. Things don't have real value - ideas and relationships do.

"I've decided that I wont be buying a house but a plane ticket."

that's our recommendation to our kids :)

Luckily I was never down to eating 'on the streets' - I'm pretty thankful I always had family I could turn to.

actually re the washing machine - a lot of change gets stuck in the pump intake and under the agitator. or ti did at our place. Pulling the washing machine apart to get the change out to buy food one day was one of the things that motivated me to go to Uni to see if I could get a better life :)

Hi Neil - Sydney has always been so expensive - I could never afford to live there at all and would never have been able to get my first house if I had. But how I started was bought the cheapest run down house in an okay suburb in a minor city. Camped there while I worked and did the house up in my spare time. Sold for a profit. Repeated a few times - I learnt enough building along the way to be able to do jobs like build a bathroom myself.
So basically I - and then later my partner as well - held down two jobs a lot of the time, our day job (if we had one), and our 'renovating job', as well as making art/music.

If i was starting now in Australia , I don't know what I'd do - maybe check out the regions - I've liked living in the regional towns in the past.
