There's so many things that I've told Dave he needs to get more of, or that he hasn't checked himself to see what is running out, that I think by tomorrow I'll have a very easy job as I won't be able to clean any toilets/ wash any dishes/ scrub any showers! When I noticed that no more washing up liquid had been brought I told Dave's wife, who was on the phone to him at the time, and for some reason he brought everything else apart from that, and then told me it w...

I had decided not to book onto any tours as I wanted to use my day off (which is just a day off Hogs breath now that I am doing Mondays and Tuesdays for Bex) to relax and recover, but the rain ruined my plans off topping up my tan and going to the lagoon. Instead I did exciting things like clothes washing (I found a washing line in some shelter so that my clothes can dry even when it's raining!), watching 21 jump street and buying some St. Patricks day deely b...

At 12.15, me, Bex and Stacey walked to East Coast Car Rentals to pick up our vehicle for the day, and then waited at our hostel for Alice to be ready after her cleaning shift. We drove to Kuranda, stopping off at Henry Ross lookout for a view over Cairns.
