Who I am | Down under, out west
https://downunderoutwest.wordpress.com/who-i-am
Down under, out west. Random thoughts on building a new life. My name is Val McFarlane. I tell people I am a professional writer but really I just get paid to spell and punctuate correctly. This blog is about settling in one of the world’s most remote cities, travellling away from it and, eventually, making the decision on whether to stay or go. There’s also a fair bit of random stuff that I just enjoy writing about. Come over and have a look…. On May 1, 2010 at 2:59 am. I have an election pamphlet from ...
Perth-onality | Down under, out west
https://downunderoutwest.wordpress.com/2010/11/18/perth-onality
Down under, out west. Random thoughts on building a new life. Laquo; The piano. November 18, 2010 by downunderoutwest. So I’ve finally made it in Perth. After 14 months of desperately trying to fit in, to find my place in the city scene, I’m in. And how do I know this? Because a picture of me has been published in the social pages of the West Australian. There I am, on page 8 of the Style section, the. The event was a Christmas party thrown by Perth PR firm PPR. 8216;It says pants on the receipt! The day...
Get your rock(wi)z off | Down under, out west

Down under, out west. Random thoughts on building a new life. Laquo; A brief note on the election. Get your rock(wi)z off. May 11, 2010 by downunderoutwest. Rockwiz hosts Julia Zemiro and Brian Nankervis. At the weekend I went to see the stage version of a TV show called RocKwiz. There are two teams of three – two members of the public, selected from the audience, plus one celebrity in each. The punters guess who the celebs are from clues read by host Julia Zemiro. Never Mind the Buzzcocks. And I was sec...

Down under, out west. Random thoughts on building a new life. Laquo; Living the frugal life. May 30, 2012 by downunderoutwest. Ask any immigrant about making friends in Perth and many will mention the city’s cliquiness. I didn’t really believe it until I experienced for myself, but when I did, it almost floored me. Confessions on a Dancefloor. Tour Another evening was spent hunting for a hat to reinforce the fact that my other half looks uncannily like a certain Irish rock star. We deliberately arrived u...
Mind your language | Down under, out west

Down under, out west. Random thoughts on building a new life. Laquo; Get your rock(wi)z off. May 21, 2010 by downunderoutwest. One of the lesser-known reasons why I thought I might feel at home in Australia is because Australians swear a lot. 8211; a kind of chart of the year’s most popular songs – went to ‘Little Lion Man’ by Mumford and Sons, a track with a chorus lamenting how the singer ‘f* *ed it up this time’. I heard thousands of people sing it out loud when...So if I’m so comfortable with a...

Trams, bikes, rain – sound familiar? | a life on the flipside
https://alifeontheflipside.com/2014/09/13/trams-bikes-rain-sound-familiar
A life on the flipside. The view from here. Trams, bikes, rain – sound familiar? September 13, 2014. So the other day I went to Amsterdam for a couple of hours. Yes, it’s a long way from Australia, but I have form in this area. I once flew to Benidorm for lunch from Lancashire, but that’s another story. Going back for the first time in a decade, albeit briefly, reminded me of how much I love the place. There are so many reasons. As they pedal along. There’s the amazing public transport. That can take you...
Losing a language | a life on the flipside
https://alifeontheflipside.com/2014/07/24/losing-a-language
A life on the flipside. The view from here. July 24, 2014. July 26, 2014. I read a story on the BBC website recently about people who had lost fluency in their own language. At first the idea seemed ridiculous, particularly as I work with words. Surely I could never forget what they mean, no matter how embedded in another culture I become? It was only a couple of years later, when I went to hear the poet Jackie Kay speak, that I realised just what I’d given away. Her poem,. Described precisely my loss.
Riding for Albi, and ourselves | a life on the flipside
https://alifeontheflipside.com/2015/03/07/riding-for-albi-and-ourselves
A life on the flipside. The view from here. Riding for Albi, and ourselves. March 7, 2015. March 7, 2015. There are so many reasons why I ride a bike: fitness; the speed compared to other forms of transport; the sheer joy of feeling the wind on my face and the energy in my legs. But yesterday I rode for Alberto ‘Albi’ Paulon. Albi, a 25-year-old chef, was killed last week. To put cyclists at risk, but they do, every day. At that time of day, Sydney Road is a clearway, so we filled the two northbound lane...
Welcome to Australia? | a life on the flipside
https://alifeontheflipside.com/2014/06/22/welcome-to-australia
A life on the flipside. The view from here. June 22, 2014. June 24, 2014. Not taken at my ceremony. If only I’d lived in Glenelg Shire, I’d have got a plant. And even although I told everyone I was really only upgrading my permanent residency to citizenship so that I could vote and choose the appropriate passport for the shortest queue at the airport, I was still a little bit excited about taking the pledge. After waiting in the cold for 25 minutes, we were invited inside. I was surprised to be hande...
Reclaiming the night | a life on the flipside
https://alifeontheflipside.com/2014/10/19/reclaiming-the-night
A life on the flipside. The view from here. October 19, 2014. October 24, 2014. Last night I joined hundreds of others marching up Sydney Road in Brunswick for Reclaim the Night 2014. Reclaim the Night is a movement that calls for an end to violence against women, in all its forms. A woman at Reclaim the Night actually thanked my husband for turning up (he was one of many men there). The Silver Fox just shrugged his shoulders. Of course he was going to be there. It was the right thing to do. I’ve n...
Dressed for success | a life on the flipside
https://alifeontheflipside.com/2014/10/01/dressed-for-success
A life on the flipside. The view from here. October 1, 2014. October 1, 2014. I won’t be wearing pants for the next month. But the good/bad news, depending on how you look at it, is that I will be wearing frocks instead. And UK readers, Australia has adopted the annoying Americanism of saying pants to mean trousers, so rest assured, there will be no going commando underneath. Apart from anything else, Melbourne is still bloody freezing. A vision of sophistication. This is how proper models pose, right?
The girl in the picture | a life on the flipside
https://alifeontheflipside.com/2014/11/07/the-girl-in-the-picture
A life on the flipside. The view from here. The girl in the picture. November 7, 2014. November 7, 2014. During October, I had my photograph taken every single day. I was raising money for ovarian cancer research by taking part in Frocktober. The challenge was to wear a different frock every day of the month – and there had to be evidence. So every weekday morning at 10am I’d gather with my fellow Frockettes. The images taken ranged from the straightforward and classy, like this…. Or by sunglasses….

Double Local →. February 2, 2011 · 11:32 am. Sometimes you forget how great Sydney is. Festival time really smacks you over the head how great this city can be. This weekend I was lucky to see two shows in the Concert Hall at the Opera House. It’s beautiful. The last time I saw Sufjan Stevens it was one of my highlights of 2008. He did it again. Such an uplifting, fantastic show. And on Sunday night we went to see Cat Power, who staged a haunting, melodic show that was very sweet indeed. We wanted to see...
The Scottish Referendum: a view from an ex-pat | a life on the flipside
https://alifeontheflipside.com/2014/09/15/the-scottish-referendum-a-view-from-an-ex-pat
A life on the flipside. The view from here. The Scottish Referendum: a view from an ex-pat. September 15, 2014. September 17, 2014. I’ve only just become Australian. But in a few days, my ‘other’ nationality will be put to the test when Scotland votes on whether or not to leave the United Kingdom. The idea of Scottish independence has been lurking in the background of Scottish politics for many years, but this is the closest it has ever come to reality. Will Scotland be independent come Friday? Build a w...
Happy new year! | a life on the flipside
https://alifeontheflipside.com/2015/01/27/happy-new-year
A life on the flipside. The view from here. January 27, 2015. What to wear on Australia Day. It’s been a while since I’ve been down this way. Is there anybody there? Or have you all wandered off while I’ve been away? I wouldn’t blame you if you did. In fact, if you’re in Australia, you probably. And listening to Daryl Braithwaite. But somehow the sentiment is lost amid boozed-up beachside barbecues and firework displays strangely reminiscent of the ones staged just three weeks before for New Year. This m...

Down under, out west | Random thoughts on building a new life.
Down under, out west. Random thoughts on building a new life. The story continues…. May 2, 2014 by downunderoutwest. I’m in Melbourne, and without wanting to give too much away, I love it. In fact, I love it so much that I feel settled enough to start blogging again. It’s early days for the new site – and there’s not actually much about Melbourne on it yet, as I seem to be in nostalgic mood at the moment – but I’d love it if you’d pop over and have a look. Then we came to the end. My commute by bike.

Downunder Over and Backagain
Downunder Over and Backagain. A tale of two hobblers. This blog tells the story of Harvey and Miriam's two month trip from the Pacific Northwest of the United States to Australia, New Zealand and, hopefully, back again. Sunday, November 11, 2007. Murchison to Pancake Rocks by Miriam. We returned to the motel with the road noise. We parked the car on the edge of the parking lot and the headlights picked up a chicken-sized bird with big feet and a long bill pecking for food. We were sure we had spo...We le...

Mange Pange & Anna Banana i Australien
Mange Pange and Anna Banana i Australien. Resrutten kommer i ungefärliga tider då vi i vissa fall naturligtvis stannade för lunch, bad eller iögonfallande ting. Såhär tänkte vi: Det viktigaste är inte hur många stopp vi hinner med utan den känsla vi får av landet. Palm Beach (Sydney) - Blue Mountains. Ca 3, 5 timmar. Blue Mountains - Kiama. Kiama - Jervis Bay. Jervis Bay - Lake Entrance. Lake Entrance - Melbourne:. Melbourne - Philip Island. Ca 1,5 timmar. Philip Island - Sorrento. Apollo Bay - Port Fairy.
