Brisbane : Australia
Today, I was bored, so I went for a wander round the parts of Brisbane that I've not been to yet. Upon my meanderings, I discovered - quite by accident - a hardware store. Bargain! I've been looking for one...

Finished reading my current book. (of 2 days) Zigzag Street by a guy called Nick Earls. You have to read this book. At some points I laughed out loud so uncontrollably that I feared giving myself an...

Yep. : Still here
Woke up this morning with Simon fretting over a lost wallet. Eventually he found it, though I'll keep it a secret where he found it. (Taps the side of his nose in Simon's direction) Did the usual wandering...

Byron Bay : Australia
Today, I did bugger all. I sat by the pool all day and watched lots of skimpily dressed girls being lithe in the water. Which was nice. Then, after Richard and I shared a pizza for tea, we bought some beer...

Byron Bay : Australia
We woke up this morning still making spoons. Felt ecstatic. Not experienced this kind of tenderness and wanted-ness (is that a word?) for a ridiculously long time. We stayed in bed for a long while, just...

We are both surprised that we actually manage to get out of bed at 5:30 in the morning to walk up to the lighthouse for the sunrise. We walk hand-in-hand (as always now) along the beach and up through the...

Byron Bay : Australia
Today was another day of relative boredom. Even later on. Sat by the pool all day reading my book, which is a bit far fetched to be anything other than a farcical attempt at a comedy thriller. Swam a few...

Got up, sat by the pool, topped up the tan. Got dragged down the beach by the crazy Dutch girl (Nora) and an English girl (Sally.) Down on the beach, they met their other friends, Kathy and Kathy...

Woke up at 8am. Well, actually, Dorthe woke me up by calling me. Which was nice. It was good to hear her voice. Their plane had been cancelled. Apparently it was in New Zealand with no wheels. And when she...
