Andrew is still in recovery after missing out on his "favourite meal of the whole year," his mum has promised to cook a Christmas dinner especially when we get back in September!

I'm so glad to hear you already know the newspaper folding in half dance because that's a new requirement at Sydney airport these days - so much easier if you don't have to learn it when you get here. I'll get to work now and book some yoga classes for Andrew in Sydney too. Lastly, is there something you've forgotten to mention in your mammoth blog entry or is the wedding ring a cunning way of fending off unwanted attention from the local hunks? Hope you enjoy the next 6 weeks - I'm just worried that our little apartment is going to be too clean and boring for you! We'll re-create the aussie xmas dinner for you when you get here if you like (involves lots of prawns, ham and barbequeued stuff). Lots of love Dee xx
