Well I'm finally writing about my week in Melbourne...the highlights so here goes! It mainly consisted of a few days of pretty much spending lots of money on lots of material things...namely quite a few dresses (yes Marketing ladies the dresses that are really meant to be worn as a top!), Dior makeup (ouch on the purse!), gorgeous shoes, randomn...

Time to head back to Melbourne, and our last accommodation in Australia. I had a fairly good blat along the last twisty bit of the Great Ocean Road, which apparently was built after the First World War as job creation for ex-servicemen, and also as a memorial to them. It's a bit more impressive than your average obelisk! Road rules here, at leas...
