Bloody hell....Majorca too! Talk about rubbing it in woman.

Our 'holiday' this year was a weekend camping in Freo. It was like a Clampit Convention No cheapy deals abroad for us lot. I seriously cannot wait to book that first holiday to Greece when we get back. I have visions of sitting of an evening, in a lovely taverna, down a cobbled street in between white-washed houses, swigging a jug of cold beer and just watching the world go by. Heaven!

Have a great time xx

Rose tinted glasses or what! can't see what's wrong with lying on a beach next to an industrial wasteland, glaring at the stars at 9pm listening to loads of snoring, surrounded by weirdos with randomly placed facial hair talking about hotted up utes and welding things together in mines (bloody aussie women!), who'd want anything else?

Austrrrrrrrraaaalia - and DOUBLE U A! Best place in the world..........(err especially if you haven't been/seen anywhere else)...maaaaaate
