Me elsewhere…
I had an idea recently. (It happens). A thought about having a little section here with links to OTHER bush bloggers.
I think I’d call it BUSH BLOGGERS.
‘Cause I am creative like that.
I wanted to share the ever-growing mob of bushies who take precious time from their hectic, hard-working lives to share a piece of their world.
Not all are the same as me – some are hands-on at their cattle or sheep properties, some work elsewhere part-time, some are serious, some are fun.
And their stories all matter.
And most are incredible, positive and inspirational.
For instance, I love that Julia from BushBelles provides a very special and feminine little cyber-haven:
Bushbelles loves all things rural and more. This is a place for inspiration and information for other rural women.
Julia approached me recently to take part in a Q&A about myself. Now as you may know, I am not generally one for navel-gazing. (Crook neck and all).
But her (enormous) list of questions was quite fun. Here is a little sample (with my ever-so-serious answers in italics):
-0000-
Clooney or Pitt?
Hmmmmm… Clooney, as long as he understood that there was no chance of wedding bells! (Also, Angelina scares me a little).
Romantic Hero or Action Hero?
Gosh I am such a fence-sitter… I like my hero’s with some fire in their bellies and the occasional ability to talk the talk. That said, I was more than happy with Daniel Craig in his non-speaking James Bond scenes. (Apparently I am quite shallow.)
Prince Frederick or Prince William?
Aren’t they both taken by sexy brunettes already? If I was some kind of old cougar (no cheeky calls from the peanut gallery please) then William might get a wink.
If he was lucky.
Princess Diana or Catherine the Duchess of Cambridge?
Adored Diana, but let’s face it, she had some issues. If I’d like the BE someone, then it’d have to be Catherine. Being alive is always a decent advantage…
Pedicure, manicure or massage?
While I am badly in need of all three, I would go the massage. Of course, if I needed to actually be in public (which is rare) I might go crazy and let some poor beautician loose on my extremities. And I would spend the entire time apologising to them.
-0000-
Three things before I go:
- I’d love you to pop over and check out the rest of my ‘interrogation’ at BushBelles. Share the love while you are there – she’d be keen to know you’ve visited.
- And if YOU are a bush blogger (pretty much anyone in rural Australia who keeps a regular blog that’s reasonably family-friendly) send your details to me bushbabeaustralia at gmail dot com. And I will get that Bush Bloggers paddock set up pronto.
- How would YOU have answered any of the questions above?

massage always wins everything for me. I love massage and it helps my chronic pain issues amazingly. If only there were an unlimited budget for those kinds of indulgences.
Bush Babe
Indeed! Massage therapists are few and far between out here…

Love the idea of “bush bloggers”. Thank you for your time Bush Babe, I loved getting to know you and all the other “bush bloggers”. I certainly had a laugh over some of them. I never sound witty so I love that other people can!

You are most welcome! BushBelles will definitely be on the Bush Bloggers list… such a pretty place you have there.

I’ve met you in real life and you are neither fat nor unbeautiful (I’m a blogger, and I can make up words if I want to.) That always puzzles me about you.
Still, very clever answers. I laughed out loud too.

Hot blokes. I am in for that.
Brad Pitt.
Romantic hero who could croon in my ear.
Frederick, I would go for for hot and fast over big.
Diana. She really cared, but had her own life too.
Pedicure.

Neither on the first…I’d rather have Tom Selleck. 🙂
This was fun and I think your idea of linking to other Bush Bloggers is great!

Summer or winter
SUMMER… less washing. More sunshine. More chance of my vege garden surviving.
I liked your summer answer. I would have chosen it as well. I can’t really imagine winter in Australia, I always think it’s sunny everyday there, accept when it’s raining. My concept of winter of course is completely different from yours I would think. In New York it’s cold with snow, ice brrrr. The leaves are starting to change color here already. Pretty soon I’ll be freezing again.

I heard someone interviewed on the radio this morning from Biggenden who apparently has a blog – but they haven’t got her link up on the station so may never know who it was!
