Primarily, we need to fix up the house and sell it. We can't sell it as it is because we started some major building works two years ago and were shafted by the builder.

How's biking in Aus? When we get there I would like to get a bike, but I understand the driving standards are pretty scary.

On par with the UK probably a little more aggresion here. But, I drive a truck for a living so I've evolved 8 pairs of eye's so if you keep a good look out you'll be okay.

Fantastic!

The kitchen floor is looking lovely, BTW, just got to connect up the underfloor heating. One room down...a whole house to go!

I think I'm going to get some retail therapy this afternoon, followed by a curry washed down with lashings of ginger beer. What did you do today?
