Friday: Finally got to go to Portarlington and met Ruth and her two kids (Dylan &Hayley) and one husband Garry. They live in Melbourne but have a summer home in Portarlington.
I passed through a town named ‘Colac’ which sounded like a medical condition, but then I suppose that ‘Portarlington’ must sound like a medical condition to an Aussie!
Interesting to hear from Ruth that women in Victoria do not get paid maternity leave. They get 12 months unpaid. Nice steak in the Grand Hotel followed by invitations to meet again. Returned (three hour journey) at 11.45 pm. Called John. Call from Fiachra. Great to hear from home. Bed. Full night's sleep-oh bliss.
