Introducing Dimi – Our Westside Wonder


Hello Reader,

We’re thrilled to introduce Dimi as a contributor to Seniors in Melbourne!

Dimi is a proud westside local, creative spirit, and lifelong Western Bulldogs supporter. She’s passionate about art (especially drawing trees), has been part of The Art Room for 14 years, and helps run the Williamstown Film Society.

She loves nothing more than spending time with her two daughters and three grandchildren, catching a theatre show, pottering in her veggie patch, or grabbing a coffee in Yarraville.

You can read some of Dimi’s recent reviews here:
🔹 Seaworks Maritime Precinct, Williamstown
🔹 Altona Homestead Lantern Ghost Tour
🔹 Dame Vera Lynn Tribute Shows

If you spot a review with heart and humour, there’s a good chance it’s from Dimi!

Warmly,
Amy

On a recent trip into the city, curiosity got the better of me and I wandered in for old times’ sake. The place had changed, of course, but sitting there with a cider in hand brought the memories flooding back. That afternoon led me to visit a few more old haunts, and it...

She’d just been along to a Device Security: Privacy and Etiquette session at Darebin Library and told me she never misses a chance to learn more about using her laptop, emails and mobile. Her motto made me smile: “You don’t know what you don’t know.” Kathy told me she picked up some surprising advice (who knew emojis could be so risky?) and, just as importantly, had a good laugh along the way....
