G'day Everyone!

Welcome to our little corner of the web world!

Hi. So glad you stopped by. Let us tell you a little bit about ourselves.

We live in Sydney, Australia, and we are Richard, Sharon, Jay and Reaelle Collinson.

We (Richard & I) have been happily married for 14 years now, and we are very lucky to have both a son & a daughter. Maybe if there'd been another sex of child, we would have tried for that as well! LOL!

We are very happy here in Australia, and believe we live in the best country in the world.

Richard serves in the Royal Australian Navy, and is a Warrant Officer. Richard has been in the Navy for 19 years now, so we're on the countdown, only 1 year to go until he pays off. (Yippee, says I!)

I also have 2 part time jobs. One is working part time for a real estate magazine here in Sydney, where I have recently changed from being a typist, to a desktop publisher, and the 2nd as a data entry operator for a fabulous company that are the marketing agents for a large telephone company (among other things).

We've been online for about 3 1/2 years now, and although here in Australia I never felt cut off from the world, I now suddenly feel so much more a part of it. I've made some wonderful friends online (usually in Yahoo Chat where you'll find me as Rosie2u), whom I'm sure I'll be friends with for absolutely years to come!(You know who you are!) Maybe one day, some of our friends from overseas will even come to visit us? We'd certainly love to meet, and show some Aussie hospitality to them. Well, enough about me though.

Next in line in our family is Jay. Jay is 9 years old, and is a great kid. He does well at school, as well as being very good at sports. Currently Jay plays Rugby League for the EAST HILLS BULLDOGS, in the under 10's side. He also learns karate, and swims in a regular swimming squad all year round, and even made the District swimming carnival last year and this year, and placed highly enough to reach the final!!!! Needless to say, both Richard and I are very proud of him.

Last but not least is our 5 year old daughter Reaelle (our Angel girl). If only I had a dollar for everytime someone has said "She's SUCH a girl!" Reaelle started school this year, and she's doing wonderfully well, and enjoying every minute of it. We're very proud of her as well, and she ranked 1st in Kindergarten in the 1st term of school for gymnastics. She also plays Rugby League on the weekends for the same club as Jay, and she is the only girl in our Football Club, but toughs it out, and has proved herself to be just as good as the boys.

These are the mascots for the 2000 Olympic games. Can you work out what the names of the mascots represent? Well I'll tell you, Syd is for Sydney of course, Olly is for Olympics, and Millie is for the Millenium Year, the year 2000. We hope to see you all there, you'll know us in the crowd, we'll be the ones cheering on the Aussies.

By the way, while you're down here visiting, maybe you could book yourself a "Bridge Climb" on the Sydney Harbour Bridge like these fabulous ladies have done. "Bronnie" is the one on the right, a very special lady I've known for a while, and she conquered her climb just recently. We're really proud of you Bronnie, and wanted everyone in the world to know it!

P.S How did we do? This is our 1st attempt at a page - it's hard, isn't it????? LOL! :-) Please remember to sign our guestbook, we would just love to know that you have visited us. Thanks! Also, if you have time, check out some of the links below, lots are homepages of my online friends.
