I've been to both Perths, although cant remember much of the Scottish one as I was only a nipper.

Give me sunshine over snow any day of the week though!

1. How do I transfer money from the UK to OZ?
2. How can I increase my baggage allowance?
3. What are the best suburbs in Brisbane / Sydney / Perth (Scotland)/ Perth (Australia)?
4. Where can I buy Bisto?

etc etc etc

dont they buzz? Well, unless they're flying around your ears you're not going to be able to hear them buzz!
are they stealth buzzers? Stealth biters more like
why do their bites come up like golf balls? To remind you how much they itch if you're tempted to scratch them

Good questions

Dont worry Worzel, I think they had 32 forecast over the weekend

Have to admit personally I am enjoying this cooler weather, although it means I have no excuse not to get the housework done.....

I'm sure the aussie mozzie waits for me to open the flyscreen every night. We had one buzzing around our bedroom for 2 nights. The bugger kept dive bombing our ears. Hubby found it in our robe yesterday morning and splattered it's guts, which was must have had at least a pint of my blood in it.

Why thank you for that Ast, but you can bring it round if you like and have a drink with us. I already have afew of those polythene splats at about 40cents each and we have an Ikea here too, only small compared to the one in North London though. I wonder if they sell the nets here?
