Hamilton went really quiet and dropped off for about ten years in the 90’s everyone I knew and all oul group of friends left, there was just nothing happening.

And now it’s picked up again, the Mcdonald’s got the best store in Australia recently I think it was or Victoria or something.

So if Portland has had declines then mabyee that’s the time to get in there.

I know just recently 90 families have moved to the hamilton area, they are a religious group. Don’t watch any telly or radio or anything and have bought up big in area. They have bought big places like Doctors houses solicitors houses and some of the more prodominant dwellings around Hamilton.

They have been dubbed “The Happpy Clappers” my mother had them come to her door. They have nothing to do with the Mine but just saying that that’s another 90 families that have moved into the Hamilton area and bought houses, they are evan constucting there own kit biult houses on a plant out the road, which they have completely constructed the plant and set up themselves, to supply there own group with houses. They bought an ex council depo or something simular with existing big industrial sheds.

As far as all the pulp, is that from all the Blue Gum trees Western? I know there has been billions planted, and they would be getting on to maturity now, i heard along the grape vine that a lot of the Blue Gum pulp is to be exported to China or Japan, so that would create more traffic at the port. Portland is one of the deepest ports in the world.

This thread was about Muldura, and I haven’t said anything about it hehe. Maybee i will drift thru there in my HouseBoat one day. But the only thing i know about Mildura is they grow lovely oranges and it is bloody hot.

Positive cashflow property is probably the easier of the two to grasp, and really not a hell of a lot needed to be learnt to get started.

But can add to amount you learn as you go. And when you get more experience can maybee branch out into -cashflow as well. But I think negative cashflow is a little bit more risky then positive cashflow, where you can rely more on science, rather then taking a gamble sometimes with negative gearing.

Congratulation on getting a LapTop,

I suggest you send it over to me to get it sorted out for a couple of weeks [blink], I mean months .

What I normaly do is download http://www.grisoft.com FREE antivirus software and set it to run auto every day. But since you got Norton that’s probably alright ( lot of people using that).

I download Yahoo Instant Messenger and instal it, it has many features that you can use and are handy. For instance it gives stock market alerts(rings a bell if your shares go up or down). Have it send your weather erport every day to your email box, chat, radio stations (make your own private one!). It also; once you actauly sign up for messenger, which it totally free [but there is pay services you can use] gives you a yahoo ID so that you can use yahoo email, so then you just use yahoo web based email instead of outlook and can check your email anywhere, net cafe’s, someone elses home etc! And Yahoo Messenger is programed magnificantly.

I instal a auto passord remembering software free at http://www.gator.com/home2.html , this loggs you into sites, if you have lot’s that you log into and over a few years you tend to forget what passords you used. This remembers them.

You can go into your browser on your other PC and import your old bookmarks and put the file on a floppy disk and then take it over to your Laptop and import the file into your favorites, then misteriously your favourites will all be in your LapTop.

And don’t forget to download the LapPack Calculator http://www.Jaffasoft.com/property/LapPack.zip

Good luck with it…
