Hi, I'm Richard 's wife and I'm the one tucked away in the back office paying all the bills! I come into the office a couple of days a week and pay accounts, manage the bank account and process the payroll. I grew up in the Blue Mountains, and had a wonderful childhood where I spent most weekends bushwalking and generally enjoying a very outdoors lifestyle. I moved to Sydney when I was about 20 and lived in the Randwick area and so got a taste for the inner city life and also the city beaches. I completed various business studies and worked for a number of large finance companies and also fitted in a far bit of overseas travel including backpacking around Europe. I met my husband Richard when we were both working at AMP in the city. As we both loved travelling we continued to do so together including a number of OS skiing holidays. When it was time to start a family we moved to Forster being a great place to raise children. Our 2 boys, Matthew 12 and Ben 10 keep us very busy and they also love their outdoor sports (although they are pretty keen on the computer and the Wii too). We have done lots of skiing together as a family and the boys are now regularly flying past me on the slopes and telling me to go faster. We love to go camping and both the boys love their surfing, cricket and soccer. I like to keep fit too and also play soccer myself, although my body sometimes tells me its time to give it up! I also love Pilates and regularly run the beach. Each summer I say I'm going to take up surfing to join the boys, maybe this summer will be the one! I have been in a Book Club for many years and try to read our book each month, although I don't always succeed but I love getting together with the other girls to talk about the book and numerous other topics over a glass of wine! I love living in Forster and I think we have a great group of people working together in our office which make it a pleasure to come into work each day!
