The blog begins...at last!

So I actually completely forgot that I had started this blog until today when I was a bit bored at work. From now on I am going to try and regularly update it so everyone can keep up with what we're doing out here. My job fluctuates between really busy and really dead (today being a really dead day where the phone has barely rung) so I'm sure I'll manage to write something every so often.

It seems pointless updating you on what we have done up until now so I'll just start with Dave's birthday weekend. Friday, the day of his actual birthday, we went out for drinks with some of his colleagues by Darling Harbour, and then ended up going for dinner to an Indian restaurant called 'Holy Cow' (nice name, huh) in Surry Hills with some friends. This was followed by even more drinks at an Irish pub in the city. Saturday followed a similar drinking and eating theme with a night of tapas and cocktails in Kings Cross for a friend's birthday. I ordered a litre jug of sangria for Dave and I to share only to find out that he hated it - so I had to drink it on my own; followed by half price cosmopolitans, I was rather tipsy before we'd even sat down to eat! Finally Sunday we just chilled out and went for a nice long walk over to Kirribilli (where I saw Alf Stewart of Home&Away fame) to walk round the art & design market where they had lots of vintage clothes, jewellery, and stalls selling really cheap seconds - I'm going to wait until pay day then take down $40 and buy myself some goodies! We also went to see the Prime Minister's House and Luna Park, apparently the theme park where they have been the most deaths; probably why it's free to get in! A walk round Wildlife World (we have an annual pass) to check up on the koalas, wombats and wallabies finished the day. A good weekend in all!
