Tomorrow's our 6th month anniversary since we arrived, and we're having a great time. Mr L enjoys his job, I enjoy my new change of direction!
I turned 30
and managed to cope with the trauma of it all, inspite of Mr L being my wee toyboy! 
It helped soften the blow, when he proposed that night!
So for anyone looking for a little happiness in Oz....it is feasable!!
Ps. this is our new entertainment area and pool, with ickle water fall, and (my favourite bit!), a spa-jet seat!

I have been watching it for over 2 years now, and I must admit, it is Hilarious
It's a wonder you haven't seen it on TV...They actually film it in Melbourne...
