in 2006 i decided to jump ship and move to melbourne, australia.  now it’s me, the brit husband, and a menagerie of characters in the land down under.

you can read about my adventures with different coloured money,  strange creepy crawlies (some poisonous),  the metric system and life in general.  just make sure you visit often.  you might miss an interesting story entitled “dirty man on the tram”

    I’m jealous…I love a man with an accent. To bad my husband can’t imitate one to save his life. How exciting Austrailia sounds, I’m jealous!

    thanks guys!
    i love the husband’s accent but around these parts, i’m the one with the accent.
    love your blogs too (and the amazing displays of sisterly love). ;)
    i read them first thing every day. i like to start the mornings with some humour.
