So yeah pat yourselves on the back. Only downside is I hear Australia is filled with criminals... though my source is a few centuries out of date.
teehee

Well we can go visit a monastry over in WA -can't remember the name of the town but it's awesome.

Oh you should do that walking pilgrimage in Spain... forget the name of it but a GF did it a few years ago, said it was brilliant.

And for the record (if you are a history buff).. Sydney, Perth and Melbourne, were settled by convicts. The worst of those convicts were sent to settle Brisbane, and Tasmania (port Arthur).

South Australia was a free settlement, no convicts in that state, which is why South Australian's speak with the Queen's english and have a different way of pronoucing things that those in NSW.

I've only been to England/Scotland/Wales, Hong Kong, and Singapore. A quick stopover in the UAE and that's it. I find it hard to leave Oz - it's such a beautiful country.
