Hi there!

Well, we are both enjoying our new jobs here in Sydney. Em likes the fact that she can have a glass of wine on a Friday afternoon at her desk, and Ben likes being so close to a gym! Seriously though, the work (and the money!) is good, will look great on the CVs and it's keeping us busy. Took a while, but we've now got into the routine of getting up early every day.
We've been doing the usual exploring at weekends - Chinatown, Paddy's and Rocks markets. Our flatmates took us to a fun 30th birthday party - dressed up as Bond and Lara Croft!
We also had a great few days when James came to visit us, in Sydney on business - we went out for lots of drinks and fancy meals, and showed him some of the sights - Australian museum (saw Em's fav creature - Dyptronathon), Botanic gardens (thousands of bats in the trees!), Sydney sky tower (amazing views over the city and harbour with a couple of beers), and the Ice bar (which was very cold and James smashed his ice glass while trying to pick it up with chucky gloves!).

If anyone eles wants to come and visit us it would be great to see you - winters disappearing and weathers getting hotter!

Love Em and Ben xxx
