Latest News

I've put a few more photos up on flickr - mainly of Bondi Beach and the Opera House.

Getting on fine, moved to the new hostel which is going fine - it doesn't have airconditioning so it gets quite hot at night but its good to have our own room. Got a Bank Account opened and have applied for a Tax Number so we can get job hunting.

Got on some of the Sydney Ferries at the weekend (Public Transport - just like buses to some of the islands in the bay.) They were good - good views of the city and got to a few beaches. Went to the Maritime Museum on Sunday which was also pretty good.

Went up the Sydney Skytower yesterday - gave really good views across Sydney as it was a nice day. Weathers been pretty consistantly hot which seems to be doing wonders for my Eczema!

Got a few more sights to see here, then we are thinking about moving out into the country and trying out some fruit picking as finding a flat in Sydney seems to be hellish at this time of year.

Times up so must go!

Good to know things are going well. Derek is away back and out at the pictures when we phoned him tonight! Got another parcel from CPC so well kitted out now. Belinda has been watching a tv prog about Sydney - seems to be the posh bit of Australia. Better go and get marking! All the best

Sounds a fair trip so far. There is a job going here just now, getting a few new clients so fairly busy. Not sure if the 40 hour round trip would suit and I dont think we have any clients in OZ!

Been snowing here this week and fairly icy today. Still managed to get in despite my skating car...where did I get it again!! Up to 140 thousand miles now. Mum and Dad bought a new jeep recently however they are still using the car in the snow so as not to get it dirty or use too much feul!!
