Willow - RAAF at Williamtown Not very far away at all, but probably best to talk to some of the locals and see just how bad the noise is, I could be talking out of my rear end LOL But you are right about the house prices around here, thay are getting to be just ridiculous. We live in the Wallsend area BTW and I grew up in Lake Macquarie, it is nice out there but we like being closer to town I guess which is why we ended up here. That and it is nice and bushy where we are which I love apart from the odd bushfire!! Oh no about your night though That is seriously bad wish I didn't know how you feel, but I was feeling the same about the sleep business yesterday too, although I'm a bit better today. I could not get her to sleep much in the morning and by the time she finally fell asleep in the afternoon it was 2.30 and almost time to go and get DD1 from school So she only slept for about 1 hour all up yesterday and by the end of the day was crying every time I put her down to do something I had been asked by a friend to go out for her birthday and was seriously close to calling it off, but in the end just decided to up and go and get out for just 1 hour. I'm so glad I did, I was just about ready to slit my wrists

Misty - Oh no that sucks about your phone and about the kids I hope they are all better so you can have your long weekend away.

Hi everyone else!
