Our Gal

February 2, 2017 by Maggi Barnard

Kathy Bray

How long have you lived in Forbes and what do you like about living here?
I have lived in Forbes since I was about three years old. Forbes is a wonderful place to live because of our friendly com- munity. Forbes is truly amazing because if there is a crisis the whole community works together to help and support those in need.

Where do you work and what do you enjoy most about your work?
I work for a Government department. What I enjoy most is working with people, meeting peo- ple and learning new things.

What do you do to unwind after work and on weekends?
I relax in my garden. I also spend a lot of my time with my grandchildren and other family members. Watching my grandchildren play sport brings me a lot of joy.

What are you really good at?
Crocheting and that is because I love making items for the grandchildren

If you could have a super power, what would it be?
Invisibility, so I could vanish in the blink of an eye, and leave the house without anyone noticing.

What is your pet hate? Seeing children or pets being left in the car.

Tell us about your best holiday ever.
The best holiday ever was the road trip about 20 years ago, to Renmark in South Australia with my daughter. The purpose of the trip was to spend time with a best friend. We also did all the tourist sites on the way. It certainly was a wonderful holiday.
