Hey Aims
Hey Cous, sounds like ya having a blast. Fabulous photos and great stories keep em up!. Well over here, it's been terribly dry and then what ya know the cyclonic storms start. Qld had rain, NSW had hail and Vic, had snow all in the same day. Unbelieveable I know, don't figure? Right in the middle of harvest, real handy..... not!

Halloween
Looks like a great party - your pirate host sure looks scary. You two should have been runners-up - the radish thing looks a bit lame. I'm sure you will make the most of the rest of the time with Marissa xx

Hey Aims... Great Blog again. You look like sexy as a pirate i must say, even with the eye patch....and the boots, they looked HOT too! ha! Thanks for Marissa brushing her teeth, lovely photo. AND yes, will there ever be a BLOG without Mt Fuji in it.... Worked at the cricket at your beloved Adelaide Oval on Saturday, it was 30 degrees, sunny and the beer was flowing! Jealous?? Wasn't the same withuot you and Danielle heckling me on the hill though! The second test is here in 2 weeks, have tickets for the 1st day on the Friday, and NO i'm not working, so i get to heckle the Police and be on the other side of the fence for once! Yah! Got a few days off now, it's 36 today, bloody HOT! Might head down to the beach for a swim i think.... want to come?? Ha! Was suppose to catch up with Danielle at The Alma last Thursday but didn't go, too old i think for Thursday nights at The Alma. P.S - thanks for the phone call few weeks ago even though i was in stinky Melb at the time! Oooo roo...!
