Yo boys & girls!
Just a little note to say cheers for all you out there who gave us advice about Sydney. We have now got a place right on Bondi beach and should be starting work next week (boooo).
We will provide photo evidence some time next week to make you all jealous of our beach pad.
Thanks again kids

Dear Linz
Thanks so much for your phone call it made my day, as you have guessed we had a few !!! but hay its not every day you become a fully paid up member of The Old Gits Society.
We will all miss you both tonight at the party but will raise a glass or two to you both.

Love to you both

Hi guys,

Hey all,
Well I'm back from my mini adventure with Linz and Grant and I had a brilliant time. We did loads of really cool stuff which I won't go into it now, you'll have to wait for my guest appearance in the next journal update....
All I will say is that some of you guys need to go out and see them as Grant needs some male company. Linz and I exhusted him with our endless shopping trips and girly talk (my bad hair, needing the toilet etc sorry Grant you are a star and loved it really plus we did take you to Hooters!!!)
Also I can confirm that the tans are real and no St Tropez has been used (that was me to try and catch up with them!)
Linz - after you guys left, you'll be pleased to know that I did go to the bar (wearing my new dress) and had a cheeky singapore sling but unfortunately it was mega expensive so could only afford to stay for one... no Richard Gere hanging around the bar waiting to buy me another one - shame!!
Anyway can't wait to see all the piccies on the site.
Take care
Big love & kisses
Clairey xx

Calling all you former travellers, the G-Man and Linzster need your help!
We are now in Sydney and have started the search for a job and somewhere to live. The thing is we are not too sure where to base ourselves. We kinda wanna live near the beach and was thinking about looking for places around Bondi, is this a good idea? Where did all you guys live when you were here? We also are undecided what sort of jobs to go for, so if you have any reccommendations on jobs or agencies to sign up for then that would be cool as well.
Drop us a line people as we need to get this sorted ASAP!!!
p.s. Alan you will be glad to hear that the tan is fading due to frezzing cold Australia! However on a brighten note, I'll send you hostel address so a pears soap can be sent immediately by airmail!

hey linz,
Whos the little brown boy whos started to appearing in all the photos, what happened to that nice white Essex boy you went away with?
Awaiting report on Sidney and how Uncle Grant is getting on with all those young students at the hostel, tell him a bar of pears soap can help!
