the cave
So yeah, the big JC has been keep the updates, i have been in deep thought for the whole of the past 2 months and have now mange to bring myself to write again, unfortunatly it will not really have been worth the wait!
Times have been great, we have adventured our way through Victoria enjoying the fabulous company of the family, surfing numerous waves and seeing some truly stunning places. For the last couple of weeks i found myself in the west of the city living with some friends from the church there, they were class plenty of fun was had and there local knowledge on where to get excellent donuts from was greatly appreciated!
The beavers cave is our home now though and we love it, we have got furniture from various places and love the horrendous decor which is so old you may actually find similar wallpaper in the super fashiopnable area of laura ashley now! We havent got a fridge yet so are living out of an eski which is rather effective. Backyard cricket is the name of the main game we play before settling down to banter over a fine coopers pale ale!
My current job is to work in an italian restaurant which is rather good and mostly fun right on the banks oif the river in the middle of the city. I want to go for a swim now though so will love ya and leave ya. Byeeee
