As predicted, on Tuesday night, we sat on our fat bums and caught up on The O.C. - soooo exciting! (really was though, well thought Trey would die!) We had a well earned lie-in on Wednesday, before we psyched ourselves up to go shopping. Had THE best day! Beck finally got a new pair of jeans which are not baggy around the crotch, plus a new bag (so she's not carrying the sad effort from Thailand around anymore!), 2 tops and a pair of sunnies, while I restricte...

The bus from Byron Bay to Sydney took a lengthy 14 hours - rude! We were stiff as boards by the time we got off, and looking particularly glam! We have mainly minced about this morning because we're stayin here for quite a while and we're not in any rush. Going to the Spanish quarter tonight (Liverpool Road would you believe) for tapas - yum! Then we're going to sit on our fat bums and watch the TV - extreme holidaying, thats us! Tomorrow the plan is to ...

Our room is a 9 bed dorm, and realised as soon as we walked in that we were going to sharing with 7 boys by the mass of gruds on the floor. ...

Good news Aunty Shaz and Uncle Chris, Natalie has met the man she is going to marry!!! Hes very pretty, has nice teeth, lots of hair and works on the backpackers information desk. We're not sure what he's called but he's very polite and we imagine his name is Dave. Its going very well so far, we've seen him twice now and Nat even managed to say thankyou to him without mumbling incoherently or generally falling over - RESULT! The hostel we're staying in is...
