Went to sydney on the 18th of November to do a bit of sight seeing. Went to have a look at the Opera house did the Harbour Bridge climb and had a look round the city. Sydney was great, really enjoyed it there, plus they like the rugby. Added quite a few photos this time. [View Full Entry]

Went to Sydney for the weekend and had a look at Cronulla Beach on the way in. Watched a few people surfing and passed the sharks rugby ground. There were blue bottles all over the rock at the beech that must have got stranded there as the tide went out. Next stop Sydney. [View Full Entry]

Went to the Melbourne cup for my birthday. Had a fantastic even though i didn't win a sausage. There were me Mark, Ryan, Hayley & one of Hayleys friends. As you can see from some of the pictures it was packed and ended up being really warm. Mark & Hayley were pretty burnt by the end of the day. So even though i might look stupid the hat really saved me. [View Full Entry]

Now then. Managed to get some of work this week. One of the guys at the cricket club has his own business fitting roller garage doors. It’s pretty steady but not all that regular so i just work when he needs me. Still looking for something more regular but it's a bit of a waiting game for now. Other than that i'm doing well. The weather is pretty hit and miss at the moment but it is getting warmer. Just thought I’d stick a few pictures on while i can get online. Best Wishes. [View Full Entry]

Played 2 games for Traralgon Imperials now. Not had the best of starts personally, but once again the nerves have been getting the better of me. It’s pretty different to being back home.

Hey everyone, thanks for the messages. Great to here from people back home. Landed in Auckand, New Zealand yesterday and staying with my old neighbours from methley, Malcolm & Joan. Went for a meal last night in an english bar and having a ride into Auckland today. The weather here is a bit colder than the other places i've been to. Fiji was too hot, so it's nice to be a bit cooler. Hope everyone is well and i'll write again soon when i get more time. Best Wishes. Calv X X [View Full Entry]
