I am, you are, we are Australian!

Last night, myself and 994 others became Australia's newest citizens at the exhibition centre in South Bank. I was so proud to be one of the many nationalities taking part in the ceremony and grinned all the way through it (although it was a little tough for one of us to grin at certain times!) Unfortunately I don't get to vote in the upcoming election as it's just a bit too late to process... but the NEXT election.... watch out!

We are one, but we are many
And from all the lands on earth we come
We share a dream and sing with one voice:
I am, you are, we are Australian

This brought a tear to an ol' cynic's eye!
Honoured to have you aboard!

"Chuffed" is still fine! A great opportunity to say 'thank you' for your magnificent photographs. They are much enjoyed! Welcome again to our city and to Oz and enjoy the rest of your life here in good health! Pity about the election ...
