Well I am lovin' Melbourne. Everyone said I would and I do! The city is very cosmopolitan, there are cafes and shops galore. At the weekend there is street theatre and market stalls. I have spent the last few days soaking up the international atmosphere.
I went to see a [Scottish] film at the International film festival last night. The film was based in Glasgow and made me a little home-sick! I got over it quick enough wiht the help of a banana, chocolate + cream crepe!
Today I visited the neighbours studio and Ramsey Street and later tonight I go the infamous neighbours night with some of the stars. Hopefully I should have some photos to put on the website soon.
I have been very good and managed to avoid the shops and instead I have wandered around art galleries and taken rides on the tram to different parts of the city. There is so much to see in this city - I would love to come back.

Anyhow, check back here to hear all the gory details.
