Work is so getting in the way of life.... January update

Well how good has January been! Full of nights out, bbqs, cycles after work, and beach action! The more time I spend in Melbourne, the better it gets!!!!

To start with, the Melbourne Tennis Open kept me very busy for a fortnight! Club Scotia was in full form at the Andy Murray games - cheering on the Scot with our c u jimmy hats on and soltires! He did so well - got to the fourth round, and got put out by Nadal in a stunning match that went on till 2am! He did Scotland proud anyway! The other open highlights were cheering on Andy Roddick aka Stifler, and watching Serena Williams - man I wouldn't like to bump into her in a dark alleyway on my own!



Also, was great catching up with Jen who is over visiting for a couple of classic weekends. However, she did bring the rain over with her - I wasn't thanking her but I'm sure the firefighters were! So what on earth do you do in Melbourne in the rain? Good question - even John the tour guide was struggling, until someone suggested paying Harold Bishop a visit! So off we went to Ramsay street... nuff said!


National Ozzie day eve was a great sister night out - with Jules and I starting the night off in the Docklands and finishing up in Pugg Mahones listening to one of the best guitarists ever... those Ozzie day Malibu jelly shots went down a treat!!! Then Ozzie day was spent down at St Kilda people watching from Stokehouse pub on the waterfront and then a party at the Yarra with fireworks coming from the sky scrapers. Was a great reunion with the Tin Billy (Brissy) gang again - (I feel like I was there), and a good way to celebrate all that is good about Australia.


Lots of great ladette reunion night outs with Jen and Emma have been going on, but the highlight was Big Day Out - what a day - like a mini T in the Park - "u no the wans I feel sorry fur...the wans that arney here" (Cazza Kanye, Jul 06) Loads of great bands, Killers, Kasabian, Evermore, Jet, The Streets, Muse, The Vines... finished by some crazy dancing with Adam and Jules to Crystal Method DJs in the boiler room. Yes seriously it as a room full of boilers (the slam tent equivalent!)



Hope u enjoy the pics!

And ps.... it didn't rain the whole time Jen was here - evidence below!!!
