I love Perth. It is my home, and no matter where I am in the world, Perth is where my heart is.
I know about photography - I'm really good at it.
I resent that, ... I resent that. There was never any legal action or anything ever asserted in that manner.
It depends on your point of view, yes.
Unfortunately if you want to protect your interests there is sometimes no other way of doing business with Telstra.
We are pleased to be back in football.
Yes, I may well have done, yes, I did.
You can choose a direction that will take you into something that isn't going to take you where you want to go, or you can choose another direction which is down the right pathway.
I have a fear of public speaking. It's very hard work. Words are not my skill, and because they're not my skill, I have to work doubly hard.
If you have a difficult marriage, it's the hard times that make it better. If you have a relationship, it's the hard times that actually make it better, and that goes for life as well.
I have always been comfortable that no one has been able to assess what I really have.
I'm lucky I had signposts in my life. At important times, I got pointed in the right direction by particular circumstances.
I've been very lucky because Perth has been very good to me. I've enjoyed my journey and met so many wonderful people.
With WesTrac, you have real people doing real jobs with real problems and real opportunities, and you touch the metal, and it's like being grounded.
