I come from a land down under......

After nearly 3 years away from home I finally managed to wangle 4 weeks holiday over Christmas & New Year in Sydney! It was so lovely to be back home and get lots of ma & pa hugs. Obviously nothing much had changed except all the kids had grown about 2 feet each. I spent the next 4 weeks doing nothing but realxing, eating, reading and spending time with friends.

Spent New Year's with Mark under the harbour bridge at Luna Park. It was great to have Mark around as it had been 4 months since he had left London for Singapore. We even went on the jet boat around Sydney harbour (thanks Andy for the pressie) and laughed so much! Got pretty drenched but in the heat of Australia nothing stays wet for long.


Clare came over to Sydney as well, catching up with her brother so got a couple days in with her as well. A bit weird being in my neck of the woods together but it was fun taking her to Bondi anyway. Me, Mum & Clare also went for a massage.

I spent time with all the girls back home which was lovely. Even got a chance to see my cousin Darren!

   

  


But all good things come to an end and I was back on the plane end of January to come back to London. I thought that most of the bad weather would have passed but unluckily for me it waited until I got back. I was staying at my friend Bianca's house for a couple weeks whilst I looked for my own place. It was a bit of a trek coming in from Essex but it was nice to spend some time with her. Then luckily I managed to find a 1 bedroom place! Result
