The kids never leave the house without insect repellant on. <br /><br />It's probably better to go back while your son is young as the transition will be easier. I wish your family all the best.<br /><br />Thanks for your kind words.<br /><br />CathyCatherine Crusehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15752722135557176937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1444699928233442939.post-71717172102696456842013-04-04T00:04:23.448-07:002013-04-04T00:04:23.448-07:00Hi Chanaka, thanks for your message....no that was...Hi Chanaka, thanks for your message....no that wasn't me at Anim 8. We are actually back in Melbourne for two weeks during the school holidays and return to SL on the 11th April.<br /><br />I wouldn't be surprised if we stay longer than 12 months, it's been amazing and challenging at the same time. Stay in touch<br /><br />Thanks CathyCatherine Crusehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15752722135557176937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1444699928233442939.post-83954472669470246392013-04-03T03:23:29.893-07:002013-04-03T03:23:29.893-07:00Great blog - all the best to you and your family. ...Great blog - all the best to you and your family. I am in Melbourne and a frequent visitor to the Knox tavern. But it looks like we will also be moving back to SL with my 4 yr old son as my wife seems very keen on it (atleast for a few years). I am dreading dengue and finding schools. <br /><br />Keep up the great work - very inspiring :)<br />Sajinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1444699928233442939.post-74754830866014858342013-04-03T02:27:24.113-07:002013-04-03T02:27:24.113-07:00Hi Cathy, I together with my wife and two kids liv...Hi Cathy, I together with my wife and two kids lived in OZ for 5 years out of that 2 years at Mount/Glen Waverly and moved back to Sri Lanka about two years back after getting our OZ citizenship. I had visited Knox Tavern with my friends many times. <br /><br />What it made me to write this comment was that I could remember someone like you (probability of that person being you is very high!) answering a mobile in Sinhala. This happened just yesterday at a place called Anim 8. Though that person did not noticed, all others in that room looked at.The way that person greeted the staff when leaving, reminded me of OZ way. <br /><br />When I saw the article appeared Knox Weekly on www.infolanka.com, I strongly felt that this person is none other than Cath. <br /><br />Anyway, I would like to wish you and your family good luck, and hope you'll decide to stay back in Sri Lanka beyond the first year, serving our community.

Funny video, but everyone slips in and out. I hear it at Seville with Ishy and Ranga and on the train.
