Arrived Melbourne

Dear I'm all ears, we have made it to Melborne whichfeels strangely English when you consider how far away we we are. The biggest difference so far is that the birds make completely different noises to the refined European tweets, they are all squawks and hoots. The kangaroos are a bit of a shock as well! We are slowly getting through the jet lag before heading off along the great ocean road Lx L2YM

OK first post on banks.  They are there to provide you with a service, if you don't get the service you want, politely but firmly persist until you do.   Oh and never consider going into banking.

Zelly I have set to blog up so we can stay in touch over the summer while weare travelling.  I will try and write reguularly to tell you what we are doing.  I hope you will use the blog to reply and let me know how you are getting on.  I will of course impose some words of wisdom on you regularly.  I fully expect you to ignore most of it but anticipate that you will eventually ruefully agree that you should have listened to your mother.
