NO, where have you been?
In which I will summarise the month of November without apologising to either of you for my absence. I might start from the end of October as things occurred.
25th October – 14th November 2009
All the way from notsunny England, Mother and Father came to visit. On a quest for sunshine and to see kangaroos they occupied a hastily converted office/music room for 3ish weeks.
Their visit included trips up the Sunshine Coast, down the Gold Coast and to Sydney. We went walking in rainforests, driving up mountains, sitting on beaches and other touristy pastimes.
The become fond of ice cream coffee and getting the catamaran into the city. Highlights included some excellent scenery at Kondillia Falls and Lamington National Park. We also went to the koala sanctuary which I probably wouldn’t have done without visitors but actually quite enjoyed. Was worth it to see Mother’s joy when she paid to hold a koala!
I am getting quite fond of Sydney, this visit being my third now. Now I know my way around a bit down there I quite like the city. It is better than Brisbane.
We managed to be there for a 40 degree day, most of which I spent taking odd pictures of the Opera Hissue.
Was good to see the parentals, it had been nearly 3 years to the day. Now if only my siblings would make the effort to make the short hop down here to Oz!
Also in this time Alana and I celebrated 5 years of the married. Go team us.
15th November – TODAY
Since the departure of the olds things have been pretty quite. Straight back to work the Monday after they left.
I discovered the garage gets to many heat to use the treadmill in there any more so I have done a join at the gym by work. I have only been once but it isn’t my fault. For reasons that are none of your business I had to not go for 2 weeks until I am told I am allowed to go. Looking forward to getting stuck into it properly.
I have had a very cool photoshoot with the lovely Miss Drea which I will share with you soon. I also have pictures from the band shoot ready to share.
