What a funny time.

It has taken a while for this post to be written, but for that I am blaming Gavin (not that he has done anything really, but he does make it awfully easy for me).
Anyhoo, the point of it all is, that last weekend, a great bunch of us went to a sweet little home in the Blue Mountains, where we got totally battered for three days, before once again returning to our much loved home - The Golden Grove. Between the spooning and the minor illegal engagements (that put all of the British amongst us in hysterics), we really did have quite a time up there. I also made some quite splendid purchases, that will surely tie me over for the cold months in Europe.

And now, a picture of Matthew and I, taken by Mr Higgins ("Mr Iggins):

Gelato Adventures

Today my housemate Michael, and I rode to Rozelle for gelato and my my my did I get flushed! Nevertheless, the sign did not lie - it truly was the best gelato in Sydney and the best I have tasted in my life to date...so quite the treat really. Also today I started a list for my travels - it has suddenly dawned on me that I have an awful lot to organise and not so much time to do it in, and somehow making a list fools me into thinking I have achieved something.

I think now I must face the doom of our fridge - there's only so long it can be avoided while the smell that started as only a light odor continues getting stronger and stronger. I assure you, it will not be great fun.

To begin again.


It would seem I have not been entirely faithful to this blog space, or the idea of blogging in general, but I must begin again in the hope that I may redeem myself to those who are indeed faithful, or have perhaps only just noticed I have not been here since May 11th - when things were at least somewhat different.
At least I am well timed, because I will be leaving for the big smoke awfully soon, and will then travel onwards to Ireland, for six rainy months. From there, who knows? I will venture in any given direction.
And so I must rally bloggers and friends to read this once again (if any of you ever did - I know of only one person that just might have) so that I can tell you my travel tales and dream of home.
