Well we never did get the baked potato. We went back to the shop we saw called 'Hot Potatoes', which we presumed sold potatoes, and discovered it in fact sold plastic koalas and other trashy tourist 'memorobilia'

The hostel we moved to last night rocks. It is above a pub, and here in Melbourne they do pubs like pubs should be. In Brisbane it's all trendy bars and alfresco crap with loud muasic so you can't hear yourself think. But the Exford Hotel is nice. It has pool tables and pints of beer, and you can smoke, which you can't do anywhere anymore. Most excitingly... It has a Machine!! Ot only has Who Wants to Be a Millionaire on it, but it's the first I've seen in this heathen country. In Queensland it's all 'pokies' (fruit machines) So we sat and drank beer and played pool and saw some bad free comedy and it was just like home!! We managed to blend in well at the comedy show by sitting at the front and announcing we were lesbians and in charge of the bookings at a major comedy club in Brisbane. Heh heh heh.

Anyway yes - Thank you to Sian, Georgie, and Fliss for the lovely birthday present, which I received on Thursday and Ari mentioned yesterday and I, in a devasting display of ingratitude, didn't. It's beautiful, and served as one of our signs that coming home will be the right thing to do. Thank you.

You're welcome...we'll play machine when you get back. Although, Nicols may not be an option. It's actually falling apart now, I give it about 3 months before there's a serious accident.

I lost my Beltane virgnity last night...it was fun and soggy.

Oh, Lizzie, do you still want Fliss and I to do a flat inspection? If you need things sorting as you'll be away for longer, then just let us know.
