You can take the girl out of the country but you can't take the country out of the girl

13 phone calls later.....


The painting is going well. Am half way through the lounge room now....definately on the downhill run as only one room left to go after this one.

I finally have a new phone, which is working along with my email. It only took 13 calls to the network to get it working properly....each time speaking to a completely different person (most with such heavy accents, I could bearly understand them). But we are all sorted now.

My Australia Day was quite uneventful - went out to the Heritage Village just outside of town where they had some events on....the whole thing was pretty lame, but I did run into my uncle and his family. He was out there because he had been nominated for an Australia Day award.

My how things have changed.....here I am at home with my Gran, completely sober on a Friday night, whereas if I was in Brisbane I would be 3 sails to the wind by now at Smurfs or CBD with Marty or Trudy celebrating the end to yet another week....am sure if nothing else my liver is getting loads of benefit from this holiday.

Have been here 6 weeks already....time flies when you are having fun (NOT)....but am still not even half way through my leave (sorry for rubbing it in!)
