Hi Guys,

This is gonna be a long one...sorry!

Ok lets starts with Easter which all started with a visit to the theatre at Apollo to see Saturday Night Fever. Needless to say it was a fantastic way to start a long holiday. At midnight we (being Jesse, Lorena and me) bored a bus and travelled 14 hours to Inverness in Scotland. It was an adventurous trip through the English countryside and eventually we arrived at our quaint hostel next to Inverness Castle. We spent 2.5 days wandering the streets, eating Haggis and having fun. We took a 3 hour tour to Lake Ness to see our mate Nessie and then over to Urquhart Castle to take some fab pics. It was however FREEZING!!! The trip back to reality on Easter Monday was fun as we needed to recover from the insane card game spoons that our fellow German hostel flatmates taught us.

My best friend Kate and her boyfriend Mark joined me for over 2 weeks. We of course did the touristy things like eating, eating and more eating. Oh yeah we even went to Camden Markets to shop and eat. It was great to catch up

with her but it made me miss you all very much.

I had to head off to Frankfurt for a hard week at the 5 star Hilton to work at an expo called IMEX. It was really busy but I did get to have some fun at the Gala Dinner dancing the night away with work mate to the sound of the Australian Band - Bjorn Again! I briefly caught up with my old boss and CEO from Adelaide as well as another good friend from the industry back home. Frankfurt was a nice place but not too much to do other than eating - again! I love those schnitzels.

Finally Lorena and I celebrated our birthdays this weekend and as a nice surprise the goverment decided we were all in need of a bank holiday. So Friday night we drank at the Mandeville and the Oconnor Donn, Saturday followed with Cheers Bar, Sak and then the Buzz Bar, and finally Sunday topped it off with drinking at our local, the Frog and Forget-me-Not in Clapham Common for 9 hours. It was a beautiful 24 degrees and with a smile on all our faces we knew summer was on the way.

So I sit here Monday arvo thinking I will never drink again but in all reality I quietly reminding myself that there is always next weekend and another reason to party will be uncovered.

Until next time.
Love to all and take care.
Tania
