... all of the work I&#8217;ve done at my previous employers. I couldn&#8217;t help but act surprised, but said I&#8217;d send it to her. The City of Boroondara didn&#8217;t seem to mind my 1 page resume&#8230;<br><br>Sports<br>I&#8217; ve been playing pickup soccer in Albert Park every Sunday with an international bunch of guys, so I&#8217;m attempting to get back into shape.

On Monday we took a train into the city and had a busy day seeing as many sights as we could. Luckily the bad weather seems to have moved on so as usual we walked for hours. Sadly the cakes we are eating means im not losing weight and probably gaining weight!! There was a huge exhibition of Savador Dalis work which was fascinating and we also went to the state library where there was a ...

... and then someone yells"Burning, Burning" Cabin staff start running around andf then some fool calls out " it's the engine, it's on fire" needless to say there was some anxiuos moments but there was no problem. Don't know how this fool came to such a conclusion.<br>Arrived in Manchester at 1.00am and the at the flat by 3.00am curtesy of a Black Cab ride.<br>A long trip but excited to be here.

... phone reception.<br><br>Melbourne... cold, wet winters, impatient drivers, The Age, the markets, Oasis Bakery, indeed multiculturalism in general, friends, neighbours and family, my own home, my dog. Not relocating north...<br><br>(And Virgin Blue beats Tiger.)<br>

... spend 5-6 weeks at home with a trip to see Jimmy, Sue and the hounds included and then we are heading to New Zealand in November.

... battery lead fitted and a power point put in the back for the fridge. The work continues getting the caravan ready trying to tidy up all the loose ends before we hit the highway. All of us getting very excited now that the reality of it all is sinking in. We really are going.

... cool. That was Sunday On Monday, we had to get up at like 6.30 to go on the Great Ocean Road trip, which was really fun. We had a crazy Aussie bus driver called Berny, who looked like Santa but spoke like Steve Irwin (though he claimed he didn't know who he was until he died). He also drove like the bus was a rally car, and there were no seatbelts so it was quite nervy, but we had good banter with him, he was a funny guy in both ways. We met a few nice people ...

EN: Melbourne is a very nice city and much more interesting than Perth or Adelaide. We enjoyed walking through the city centre and we also paid a visit to the St. Kilda Beach, which was very windy and packed with kite surfers. Our usual bar inspection was a bit more quiet then we expected as many people were out of town for the school holiday, and the famous Brunswick Street was quite a disappointment, but we still enjoyed the bars around the ...

I woke up to us docking in Port Melbourne. It is true that when you are in aft cabins, you hear the engine when you are docking, and the vibrations are interesting - but nothing disturbing, and all part of the experience really. We reversed in to Port Melbourne, which took some time. Once docked, there was the announcement for people to stay in public areas and not congest the gangway area because the ship hadn't been cleared - this was at 7.30am in ...

... amp; fitted this ourselves. Keith from Bradford the owner/manager at Repco, Dromona and Steve his mechanic from Bridlington were really kind to us letting us use their garage tools for this and to unbolt the rear seats. This made enough room for us to be able to build our bed in the back of Thomas (name might change Clare undecided until we see how he/she behaves). As well as touring the local scrappies we also checked out the Op shops ...
