Day One Hundred and Eighty Three

Saturday

We arrived in Sydney exactly 6 months ago today, I'm not quite sure where the time has gone, in two weeks Christmas will all be over!

We've done a lot in 6 months, found and furnished our house, bought a car, been to Fraser Island and got engaged, been back to England, been backward and forwards to Melbourne, been to Adelaide, had the folks here 5 weeks, done various bits of work and spent quite some time looking for jobs.

Here's to the next 6 months, we'll be sorted for jobs, I get vibe things are turning our way on that front so hopefully in New Year things will be sorted. I'm getting upbeat about it after a few good calls this week.

As for Saturday, we got up early and went to the Botanic Gardens for the Colhoun Christmas Picnic Brunch. it was col, it was mainly Kate's aunts side of the family, Barbara (Bills sister) and her daughters, Yolanda, Belinda and Anita and respective partners and children.

We left there to go and view another wedding venue at 11am and then back to the picnic.

We came home and ate up the leftovers from yesterdays BBQ and in the afternoon all slept and chilled out. We had takeaway fish and chips form up the road for dinner and rounded out the day with the continuation of the Oz v UK Scrabble tournament. Current score is 11 to 8 to the 'Aussies'.
