Mike and I are retired having worked in education for many years. We live in South Hobart, close to the city and with wonderful views of the river Derwent estuary. Usually at this time of year we would be overseas. For the foreseeable future we would be happy to swap within Tasmania. We would also swap in Canberra, restrictions permitting, as our family live there.
